Systems and methods for high bandwidth optical communications using a swarm of optically linked autonomous underwater vehicles and support vehicles that allow communications over long-distances between two points and over a wide area. At least one of the linked autonomous underwater vehicles transmit the optical communications to a control station and can receive control communications from the station. Communication pathways and networks between vehicles in the swarm are dynamic and may be redundant.
