If I recall my physics correctly water is infact very slightly blue, not blue like the sea or sky, but very slightly.
This is because when (white) light passes though water different wavelengths are scattered to different degrees. Red and that end of the scale is scattered more strongly, thusly a greater amount of blue light gets though, so water appears blue.
This next bit I'm not 100% sure on but I belive also that water molecules do reflect blue light more strongly than other colours so even without the scattering effect water is still blue, all be it very slightly.
