"Walk on the Ocean" is a song by American alternative rock group Toad the Wet Sprocket from their third studio album, Fear (1991).

Commercially, "Walk on the Ocean" peaked at number 18 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and reached the top 40 in Canada, New Zealand, and Norway.

The song was written after singer Glen Phillips and his wife were vacationing on Orcas Island in Washington's San Juan Islands after they "hung out at Doe Bay hot springs with a bunch of hippies."

Phillips quickly wrote lyrics as placeholders, intending to change the words later, but he ultimately felt he could not write anything better.

[17] The song appears on the soundtrack of the 2014 American film Adult Beginners.
