Theres no sing of enamy aircraft or ships!!
Could I be hitting mines?
If so how do you know were they are and how to go round them?
Or is it a bug?

Almost certainly you are running into a mine - generally, these mods that add minefields to friendly ports also provide you with an escorting destroyer/patrol boat of some kind which, if you follow it out of the harbor, will get you safely past the minefields - this is kinda fun the first couple of times, but does tend to get old after a while depending on which port you are in and how long it takes you to get past the minefields - many of these port traffic mods have versions or mini-mods that remove the minefields from friendly ports, in case you'd rather not bother with them
