The lulling sound of the turning of the tide at Auchencairn Bay, Scotland
The sea washes into a sandy area bordered by rocks draped in seaweed at Auchencairn Bay in southwest Scotland. This recording was captured by ±«Óãtv sound recordist Nigel Tucker, and you can hear the sound of gently lapping waves on the beach from the incoming tide, accompanied by an oystercatcher in the distance.
