The wave become bigger for a moment when a ship has passed. The engine you hear the most is from a shrimper boat on 2km. Sometimes some kid yelling and playing far, at the end the are close.

What wonderful, relaxing sounds of ocean waves. They have such a tranquil and calming effect on an exhausted mind, body or soul! They are exactly as described.
