Detailed Solution

The bluish colour of water in the deep sea is due to the scattering effect of light.
Blue light has a shorter wavelength in the VIBGYOR pattern. Blue light scatters more as we look deep into the sea in a direction away from the sun. Because the light reaching our eyes contains more violet and blue wavelengths, the deep sea appears blue.
