There is just nothing to compare it to that kind of blue. I still can't fathom how gray and green all the coastal waters seem after coming back of days of such a deep blue ocean. The waters were so clear - we could easily see 40-50m below the surface.
Getting ready for the instruments:

The different blues - sky, ocean, wave, sunrises - I had the midnight to noon shift, so no sunsets for me on that cruise ;o)

Some Sargassum floating by - what a cool little algae- ecosystem, rainbows in the sky...

And relaxing when not on duty:

sunrise and drifters:

collecting drifters:

Sargassum with out shrimp and crabs, the bow:

sunrise and view from my desk:

Helicopter, dolphins, waves, rainbows, clouds and more blue:
