Benjamin Moore

Ocean Spray

2047-60

Ocean Spray by Benjamin Moore is a light turquoise with noticeable green undertones and an LRV of 73.76, making it a high-reflectance option that reads bright and open on walls. The green bias distinguishes it from pure aqua shades and adds a natural, slightly warm lean to its cool base. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, and coastal-themed spaces where a light, refreshing wall color is needed.

Compatible Benjamin Moore colors include Soft Mint and Ocean Air for analogous layering, Hale Navy or Newburyport Blue for deeper contrast, and Revere Pewter for a warm neutral balance on trim or adjacent surfaces.
