Benjamin Moore

Bahaman Sea Blue

2055-40

Bahaman Sea Blue is a vivid turquoise with a cool undertone that keeps it bright. Its LRV of 35.71 gives it mid-range depth, so it reads saturated without becoming too dark. In warmer light the green component becomes more noticeable.

It is suitable for bathrooms, accent walls, or cabinetry where a strong blue-green is needed. Pair it with Chantilly Lace and Simply White for crisp contrast, and add Hale Navy or Revere Pewter for balance.
