Why is the sea a blue-green color?
Because seawater is almost completely transparent, but does have a color. When you put a small quantity in your hand (or in a cup), it will seem transparent, but in large bodies of water it definitely has a color. That's why a sea as a whole appears green, but a handful of sea water doesn't.
Is the sea really blue?
The wather itself does not change colour, it just appears to. The sky is reflected by the surface of the sea, you'll often notice that the sea seems dull looking on an overcast day. Also, what's in the water will affect the colour of the sea. Once a year, Phytoplankton (tiny plants) bloom in huge numbers. This will make the sea appear green.

Why does the sea water look blue?
Clear sea water is intrinsically blue.* The thicker the observed sample is, the bluer it looks. In smaller water basins, like tap water bath's and swimming pools, water appears colorless.* Related Information:The blue color is caused by selective absorption of infrared spectrum of the sun light.Water doesn't derive its color from the blue sky. However, without sunlight water can't be seen as blue.Impurities dissolved or suspended in water may give water different colored appearances, which is more often the case in sea water and lower lakes (greyish brown) than is ice lakes higher in the mountains (blue).(cf. Related links for further detailed explanation on 'Why is water blue')This has nothing to do with the blue sky color:*The sky appears blue because blue light has a shorter wavelength than green and red light (blue light - 700nm, red light 400nm). Very small molecules in the atmosphere scatter blue light, where as green and red light passes straight through and we do not see it.
