A day on the water.
A connection that lasts.
You’ve carried the weight of service.
You don’t have to carry it alone.
The Calm Seas Project brings veterans and first responders together through fishing and diving excursions. We create space to step away from the noise, reconnect with nature, and spend time with people who understand.
Our mission is simple: meaningful experiences, shared community, and a chance to find calm—together.
Our mission
“The Marine Corps taught me that no one gets through the hard days alone.”
Ryan Gunning President & Founder · U.S. Marine Corps veteran
Ryan founded The Calm Seas Project with friends who shared his commitment to giving back. Today, that commitment brings veterans and first responders together, one trip at a time.
