Hello, and welcome to Snoozy Hills.
Whatever brought you here (winding down, settling in to focus, or just needing a quiet moment), I hope this little window of calm helps. Take a slow breath. There's no rush here.
I made this to be gentle, free and ad-free. If it brings you a bit of peace and you'd like to say thanks, a coffee keeps it that way for everyone.

Ocean Screen: a calm coast, all day long
A quiet stretch of coast: a lighthouse on a grassy headland, far hills across the bay, and a sea that glitters under the sun. Sailboats drift along the horizon, swans paddle near the shore, and now and then a pair of dolphins arc out of the water or a whale shows its tail far out.
It opens in deep blue by day. Switch to Orange for a golden sea, or move the time to dusk for the sun sinking between the hills and the lighthouse beam starting its sweep.
The best moments on the coast Dusk is the coast at its best: the sun sinks between the far hills, the water lights up in a glitter path, and the lighthouse begins to turn. At night the moon takes over, laying a pale path across the sea while the fireflies come out on the headland.
Set the weather to rain for grey water and a beam sweeping through the drizzle, or snow in winter for a cold, quiet shore.

Questions
Is there a wave sound? There is a soft rain sound and gentle music, but no wave sound at the moment. Many people pair this page with their own ocean audio.
What lives in the sea? Fish leap near the shore, swans paddle by, dolphins arc out of the water every so often, and a whale surfaces far out now and then. The lighthouse lamp turns at dusk and night.
Is it free? Yes. It runs right in your browser: no app, no sign-up and no ads covering the screen.
How do I make it full screen? Press F or the full-screen button. The controls and cursor hide by themselves after a few seconds. Move the mouse to bring them back.
Does it work on a TV, tablet or phone? Yes. Open the page in any modern browser. On a smart TV or a casted screen it makes a calm ambient background for the room.
