Ah a poem can mean almost anything to any individual. It's all about interpretation, it can mean anything you believe as long as you can back it up.
But on the sea is most commonly interpreted as the sea being described as a metaphor for human life. Keats invites readers when they are feeling upset and melancholy of life that they turn to the beauty of the sea and get lost in the swell. Because the nature of one human beings life can change as quickly as the swell of the sea
