Sail Forth looks like a wonderful ocean adventure on the more chilled side of things (in a way), and if it's anything like the earlier versions I tried a while back, it would be an easy recommendation. Has quite a mixture of things from peaceful exploration and building up a fleet to various combat encounters too.
More about it: "After waking in the middle of the ocean with no memories, tie together debris to create a makeshift sailboat and figure out what the heck happened. Master semi-realistic wind sailing physics to chart unknown waters, welcome aboard stat-enhancing crewmates, and grow your flimsy dingy into a fully-fledged fleet throughout a charming heartfelt journey to save the world. Discover island environments and challenge landlubbers to a variety of mini games including boat racing, target shooting, card games, fishing, or photo collecting."

Wishlisted. Looks like something I'd enjoy. As soon as I get through at least some of my depressingly bloated backlog...
I have this also somewhere buried in my wishlist.
