Sounds of the Ocean

Waves that swell and recede on a slow cycle, with a deep low-end underneath. Familiar, unhurried, and easy to stop noticing.

You don't have to fall asleep alone tonight 🌙

Step into a quiet room where other sleepers have already tucked in. No chat, no accounts, no pressure — just company while you drift off.

Why the rhythm matters

A static hiss masks noise, but it can feel flat after an hour. Ocean sound adds a slow rise and fall — roughly one wave every fourteen seconds here — which gives the ear something gentle to follow without asking for attention.

The low-pass filter keeps the spray from getting sharp, so the result is closer to hearing the sea through a window than standing next to it. Layer night wind or distant rain on top for a rougher night.

Questions people ask

Are these recorded waves?

No. Each swell has its own timing and a separate burst of breaking foam, so it never repeats a fixed clip.

Can I make the waves slower?

Not in this version — the swells keep a slow, sleep-oriented pace with natural spacing between them. Layering brown noise makes them feel heavier.

Does it stop automatically?

Only if you choose a sleep timer. Otherwise it plays until the tab closes.
