Study Says The Delaware River Has Some Of The Bluest Water In the US
In my mind blue water seems to only exist in cartoons, but some of the bluest water in the country is right in our backyard.
When I think of bodies of water nearby I think of a more of a green or grey-ish brown color.
Driving down 76 a few times a week I can confidentially say that water is tan and tan water is not attractive water.
Travelling around the world and to the islands the water is so clear that it really doesn’t resemble any color.
The bluest bodies of water I have ever seen usually exist inside a lake or a pond. I vividly remembering seeing some of the bluest lakes as a kid on our trips to the Poconos.
I was a little shocked to learn that one of the bluest bodies of water flows right into the Wilmington Riverfront.
SIXT color matched bodies of water from across the country and ranked them on how close they came to the actual blue shade.
“We color-picked more than 50 of the best bodies of water in the U.S. and found the nearest color shade to illustrate the various colors of water available in the nation. Colors are accurate as of February 17, 2023.”
The Delaware River was ranked as the 46th “bluest” body of water in the country. Meaning its shade is only 46 spots away from being truly blue.
Here’s what SIXT said:
A short car ride away from Philadelphia, this area is known for its rich offering of waterfront activities and is the perfect spot for thrill seekers looking to spend their vacation in the water. For those looking for more relaxation, visitors can dine with a view of the river in the evening or visit one of the many riverside attractions and theme parks during the day.
Betterton Beach, Maryland ranked as the 13th bluest body of water, Maryland Beach in OCMD was ranked 15th, and Asbury Park Beach was ranked 38th.
