contents The cross-domain oceanic connectivity ranging from underwater to the sky has become increasingly indispensable for a plethora of data-consuming maritime applications, such as maritime meteorological monitoring and offshore exploration. However, broadband implementations can be severely hindered by the isolation from terrestrial networks, limited satellite resources, and the fundamental inability of radio waves to bridge the water-air interface at high rates. To this end, this paper introduces an optical network bridging underwater, air and near space, which features a number of cooperative low-altitude platforms (LAPs), serving as compute-capable, sensing-aware, and mission-adaptive agents. The network architecture consists of three scenario-specific segments, i.e., water-air direct link, low-altitude mesh network, and the near-space access network. With coordinate sensing and intelligent control, the system tightly couples beam tracking and resource optimization, enabling resilient networking under high mobility and harsh maritime dynamics. Furthermore, we review enabling technologies spanning from water-air channel modeling, adaptive beam alignment under sea-surface perturbations, to swarm-intelligence networking for decentralized control, integrated pose-topology planning, and optical Integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) for near-space target detection and beam alignment. Finally, open issues are also highlighted, constituting a clear roadmap toward scalable, secure, and ultra-broadband oceanic optical networks.
