Ocean & Beach Generator

Ocean & Beach Generator builds a complete coastline scene in Blender with one click: a sand beach with a dark wet-sand band, an animated ocean whose waves really break on the shore, spray and mist bursting off the rocks, rolling dunes with marram grass, layered sea cliffs with sea stacks, boulders and pebbles.

Pick one of 21 coasts modeled on real beaches around the world, from powder white tropical sand and pink coral sand to pebble and shingle banks, rocky coves, Baltic dune coasts, black volcanic sand, chalk and sandstone cliffs, a glassy blue lagoon and a surf beach with breaking foam lines. Then change anything: sand, water, wave height, bay depth, dunes, cliffs, sea stacks and rocks all rebuild live.

Realistic sea cliffs

Cliffs are built like the real thing: stacked rock beds with ledges and overhangs, joints and gullies, a wave-cut notch at the foot, coves and headlands, a grass plateau on top, fallen blocks and scree at the base. Add up to 8 sea stacks standing in the surf off the headlands. Chalk, sandstone, granite and basalt each get their own look.

Waves driven by real physics

The waves follow ocean physics: they slow down and grow taller in shallow water, turn to face the shore, break when they get too steep for the depth, run up the beach as swash and slide back. They come in sets like real swell and loop seamlessly. Where a wave hits a rock, a cliff or a sea stack, spray and soft mist burst up and drift away; one toggle and an Amount slider control it. The water fades softly and transparently onto the sand.

No baking

Everything moves with Geometry Nodes driven by scene time, so the scene plays as soon as you press Play, with no drivers, scripts or simulation caches.
