If you spend time on the open ocean—whether boating, deep-sea fishing, or simply enjoying the waves—you know how important clear vision and eye protection are. The sun’s glare off the water can be blinding, making it difficult to see beneath the surface. That’s where deep blue polarized lenses come in.
But what makes them the best choice for deep-water environments? Let’s break it down.
Deep Blue vs. Ocean Polarized Lenses: Which One is Right for You?
Not all polarized lenses are created equal. At Abaco, we offer two specialized lens options designed for different water environments:
- Deep Blue Lenses (Offshore Performance) – Featuring a grey base tint, these lenses keep colors neutral and true-to-life while significantly reducing glare. Ideal for deep-sea fishing and offshore boating, they allow for clear, natural vision in bright open-water conditions.
- Ocean Lenses (Inshore & Shallow Water Clarity) – Built for boaters and anglers navigating inshore waters, flats, and shallows, these lenses have a brown base tint that enhances contrast and depth perception. They help spot fish and underwater structures more clearly in variable light conditions.
If you’re spending most of your time offshore in open, deep water, Deep Blue is the way to go. But if you fish and boat closer to shore, navigating flats, sandbars, or mangroves, the Ocean lens will help you see more detail.
The Benefits of Deep Blue Polarized Lenses for Boaters & Anglers
1. Cuts Through Harsh Glare
When you're out on the water, the sun’s reflection can be intense. Deep blue polarized lenses block glare, reducing eye strain and allowing you to focus on what’s ahead.
2. Enhances Underwater Visibility
For offshore anglers, spotting fish in deeper, darker waters can be a challenge. The grey base tint of Deep Blue lenses keeps colors neutral, allowing you to see natural details without color distortion.
3. 100% UV Protection
Long hours on the water mean prolonged sun exposure. Our sunglasses provide full UV protection, shielding your eyes from harmful UVA and UVB rays that can lead to eye damage over time.
4. Built for Adventure
From lightweight sport frames to classic coastal styles, deep blue polarized sunglasses are designed for comfort, durability, and all-day wear. Whether you’re battling the waves or cruising along the coast, you’ll stay protected and stylish.
How to Choose the Best Deep Blue Polarized Sunglasses
When selecting your perfect pair, consider:
✅ Crystal-Clear Vision – Opt for UV400, polarized, and impact-resistant lenses that reduce glare, enhance underwater visibility, and protect your eyes from harmful UV rays. High-quality lenses ensure maximum clarity and durability, perfect for long days on the water.
✅ Frame Comfort – Choose lightweight, well-balanced frames designed for all-day wear. Whether you're out on the water for hours or navigating rough seas, a comfortable fit ensures your sunglasses stay secure without causing pressure points or discomfort.
✅ Best Warranty – Invest in sunglasses from a company that stands behind their products with a strong warranty. A solid warranty shows confidence in durability and gives you peace of mind that your shades are built to last, no matter where your adventures take you.
