Default Green vs Blue

My ocean is green and has been for as long as I can recall. Bob posted pics
of blue water just over yonder from me. What makes the difference between
the two?

The water near the Thimbles and Port Jeff often appears green.
Pardon me, Scout...I forgot where and what you sail...

Not sure my boat would make a difference - in any case, it was a serious
question about blue vs green, and I was just too lazy to research.

His camera does not reproduce what the eye sees. Blue-green light has the
least optical attenuation in sea water, hence the color. Other colors are
absorbed.
