How about incorporating a vast, all-encompassing ocean into the flag’s design? There are many possible patterns for an ocean motif, such as the seascape as seen from land or scenes of marine life living underwater.

If you depict the ocean as viewed from the shore, the way you render the waves becomes a key element.

Calm seas can convey dignity and composure, while rough waves can express dynamism and strength.

Also, since many forms of life exist around the ocean, depicting them can evoke the ocean’s gentle, embracing nature.
