👉 All books I feature are no spice or low spice—never explicit.

Who doesn’t love a good pirate story — the salt on the wind, the creaking decks beneath your feet, the found families, the rebellions, the dangerous secrets… and of course, the slow-burn romance set against open waters.

But if you’re like me and prefer your fantasy romance clean and no-spice, it can be surprisingly hard to find sea-faring books that fit the vibe. So today, I’ve rounded up a treasure trove of clean fantasy romance books with pirates, swashbuckling adventure, morally gray captains, magic-infused oceans, and brave heroines ready to take the helm of their own stories.

Some are sweet romance, some are romantic-adjacent with strong emotional threads, but all of them are clean. And yes — a few are available on Kindle Unlimited if you’re looking to binge on a budget!
