Benjamin Moore

Gulf Shores

665

Gulf Shores is a saturated teal with balanced blue-green undertones that create a bold, high-chroma appearance. With an LRV of 22.15, this darker shade absorbs more light and is best used on accent walls, in powder rooms, or as cabinet color where visual impact is intended. The cool temperature reads clearly without veering too blue or too green.

It pairs effectively with Benjamin Moore White Dove for sharp contrast, Pale Oak as a warm neutral balance, Kendall Charcoal for a deep tonal combination, and Ocean Air for a cohesive coastal palette.
