What color is Dulux Marine Splash?

Dulux Marine Splash 87GG 60/239 is a light, cool blue-green with a clear aqua cast and a gently softened finish. Its pale value keeps it airy on broad walls, while the green note prevents it from reading as a straightforward sky blue. In bright natural light, Marine Splash can look fresh and watery; under warmer artificial lighting, its blue-green character may appear slightly more muted. It suits bathrooms, kitchens, sunrooms, and coastal-inspired bedrooms, particularly alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibres, and brushed nickel. For more contrast, pair this color with deep navy, charcoal, or a warm clay accent rather than adding another pale blue.
