Crisp white walls form the backdrop for many nautical decor schemes. If you're painting your walls to match the theme, opt for a crisp white instead of a warmer beige.

Of course, wood paneling can also work well to communicate a nautical theme. Accentuate darker wood paneling with white life preservers and ship accessories.
