About this scene

A lighthouse on a cliff on the wildest night of the year. Waves crash below, rain drives sideways through the beam, and thunder rolls in off the sea. Tap the storm to build it up.

Storms at sea combine three of the most popular sleep sounds — ocean waves, wind, and rain — into one dramatic soundscape. Played at a low volume it becomes a thick, rolling blanket of sound.

For a calmer night, switch off the thunder and let the waves and rain carry it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do storm sounds help people sleep?

Many people feel safe listening to a storm from indoors, and the combination of rain, wind, and waves masks household noise well. Keep thunder low if sudden rumbles bother you.
