Since the weather has been good recently a friend and I decided to walk to the Beach, whenever we visit the beach, we always make a comment on how dark and grey the water is compared to other places.

i am british water and let me tell you, being british water is actually a great thing. we have beautiful people and we have ugly people. just like any race. I for 1 am a great person, have great friends, and i take care of every one that is in my life and i am glad to do it, and for that i have people that love me around me. also, british water parents are one of the best parents you can have. sometimes they can be really strict, but they will take care of you no matter what, and they will buy you what ever it is that you need. as long as your not a selfish ****head. Also, we all have great jobs, lots of money and a family that we all love and take care off.

And if you use a picture from a day that's actually sunny it can be quite blue I'll have you know.

I would say it's normally more of a greenish colour than a grey one when it's particularly miserable outside.

sorry not typing it out as you cna read for yourself. Light, depth, whats in it etc. those links show how and why the colour can change. Its not automatically about it being dirty.

Because it's not Barbados. It's Whitby on wet Wednesday in March. What do you want, jam on it?

I'm confident it's to do with the colour of the sky. In the photos you showed us, it's quite cloudy and the sky is really grey, therefore it makes sense that the water will also be grey because it's essentially one huge reflection. If there's a grey car behind you, you'll see a grey car in your wing mirror.
