Beach sound effects, the kind that make you want to be somewhere else. Waves rolling up the sand and dragging back over the pebbles. Seagulls squabbling overhead. Tropical surf for somewhere warm, gentle lake shores for somewhere calmer. Loops and long takes, so the tide never seems to stop.

What sells a beach is the drag, the hiss of water pulling back after each wave breaks. Sand beaches are soft and whispery. Pebble beaches rattle and roar as the stones roll. The recordings here cover both, from calm laps to crashing surf, along with tropical shores and lakesides. Add a Seagull and it's instantly the seaside. Many come as loops or long takes, which helps under dialogue in holiday scenes. For wilder open water, the ocean recordings go further.
