The Best Movies About The Ocean – Top Ocean Films
8. Endless Summer (1981)
OK, this film is also on our list of the best outdoor documentaries, but its so fun and entertaining you watch it like a movie. There was just no way we could leave it off our list of the best ocean movies. The Endless Summer is a 1966 film following two surfers as they travel around the world in search of surf destinations.
It is famous for giving birth to the “surf-and-travel” culture and for introducing the sport to a broader audience. The film’s title comes from the idea expressed at both the beginning and end of the film that, if one had enough time and money, it would be possible to follow the summer up and down the world (northern to southern hemisphere and back), making it endless.
7. Hunt For Red October (1990)
Things are heating up now with our first submarine movie added to the our list of the best movies about the ocean! And what a dandy it is. Based on the popular Tom Clancy novel, this suspenseful movie tracks Soviet submarine captain Marko Ramius (Sean Connery) as he abandons his orders and heads for the east coast of the United States. Equipped with innovative stealth technology, Ramius’ submarine, “Red October,” is virtually invisible. However, when an American sub briefly detects the Russians’ presence, CIA agent Jack Ryan (Alec Baldwin) sets out to determine Ramius’ motives, fearing he may launch an attack on the U.S.
