**Welcome to Fleet Tours and Embarks!**

We provide information concerning the scheduling and execution of Fleet visits, tours and embarks and how the Fleet supports community events, both in person and virtually, to inform, educate and influence audiences of Fleet activities and programs.   

A key objective of Navy Public Affairs is to develop, improve and maintain full understanding and support by the American people and our allies of the mission of USFFC and the U.S. Navy to defend the United States; to demonstrate U.S. partnership with our allies in collective security; and to develop an awareness that U.S. military personnel are dedicated and highly-trained professionals who work in support of our national goals and interests.  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.
