Ocean Color
It turns out it has more to do with the particulate matter in the water that reflects the light differently.

I always thought it had to do with depth as well, but apparently not. Here is the answer from NASA's web site:

Still sorting through pics from our epic month-long trip to NZ in Feb.
One highlight was the charter flight over Mt. Cook and Fox Glacier on the South Island. Being on board an A380 or 747 has its own feel as does flying in a Cessna Skyhawk .
