Visit The Navy

Welcome to Fleet Outreach

Fleet Outreach is dedicated to strengthening the bond between the U.S. Navy and the American people through authentic engagement, education, and storytelling. We highlight the Navy’s vital role in defending freedom, enabling global trade, and safeguarding peace. Our vision is a Navy that is understood, trusted, and valued by every American—admired for its mission, respected for its people, and recognized for its presence, from hometown events to global operations.

Through meaningful connections, we humanize the Navy by bringing Sailors closer to communities via events, ceremonies, and open dialogue. Through our Fleet Visit Program, we educate the public about the Navy’s mission to preserve freedom of navigation, safeguard commerce, deter aggression, and project power. Through engagement, we inspire future generations, while partnering with industry, allies, and civic organizations to drive innovation and reinforce shared values.

Join us in celebrating the Navy’s legacy and its commitment to protecting our nation and shaping a better future for all. Please Contact Us if you would like to learn more about Fleet Visits, Embarks, or other Fleet Outreach activities; or if you are interested in scheduling a visit by your organization.

Please Contact Us if you would like to learn more about Fleet Tours and Embarks, or are interested in scheduling a visit by your organization.

 

Available Fleet Tours and Embarks!

Tours, visits and engagements featuring various ships, platforms, squadrons, units and commands with the purpose of welcoming new Department of the Navy civilian employees about the Navy in general and educate them in some of the Fleet’s missions and capabilities.  Focus on how the Navy operates, and how Sailors work and live.  We currently have various Navy Organizations and Commands that have acculturation programs that include the NCAP program, ONI, NWDC, OGC and NAVSEA.  

This is a sample schedule of events:

NAVY CIVILIAN EMPLOYEE FLEET ACCULTURATION VISIT (FAV).  About 15 newly hired civilian employees from various Naval organizations in the Hampton Roads area will participate in the program.  The focus of the visit is to introduce the new employees to the Fleet and show them how Sailors live and work by highlighting a couple of platforms.
