Watch this 3 hour long relaxing video of Pacific Ocean waves crashing against a beach. At the beginning of the video the sun rises behind the camera to light up the waves and shore birds. At 23:45 a body surfer enjoys the waves. At 1:01:16 I moved the camera just a bit to see some more body surfers who later use boogie boards.
Body boarding is a surface water sport in which the surfer rides a bodyboard on the crest and face of a wave which is carrying the surfer towards the shore. Bodyboarding is also referred to as boogieboarding. The average bodyboard consists of a short, rectangular piece of hydrodynamic foam. Bodyboarders typically use swim fins for additional propulsion and control while riding a wave.
High Tide was at 9:20am (about half way through the video). Filmed from 8am to 11am Marine Street Beach in La Jolla, Southern California (near San Diego) on December 26, 2011 using a Canon HV30 and Zoom microphone. Marine Street Beach near the community of La Jolla, California is legendary to body surfers and body boarders because of its thunderous waves, which crash right at shoreline. However, this beach may not be ideal for families, as the rough surf is not well suited to children. The rough waves at this beach have been known to cause serious injury to swimmers and body boarders.

Ocean waves produce what scientists call 'coherent' sound patterns - rhythmic, predictable sounds that the brain can easily process. Research from Brighton and Sussex Medical School found that natural water sounds trigger the rest-digest response in the autonomic nervous system. The tempo of ocean waves, typically around 12-15 cycles per minute, naturally aligns with relaxed breathing rates, creating a biofeedback loop that deepens relaxation. This may explain why coastal locations have long been associated with wellness and recuperation.
