fair winds
Good sailing conditions
Fair winds is a nautical blessing wishing someone favorable sailing conditions—wind at their back, pushing them toward their destination.
The full phrase fair winds and following seas expresses hope for safe, smooth passage.
Extended beyond sailing, it serves as a warm farewell wishing someone good fortune on any journey or endeavor.
