calm sea
Smooth sailing conditions
A calm sea is water with little or no wave action, smooth and undisturbed by wind.
Sailors value calm seas for easy passage, though complete stillness can strand sailing vessels.
The phrase often appears figuratively for peaceful conditions: After months of turmoil, we're finally in calm seas.
