Imagine yourself in Cape Cod in early fall with the steady swells of the waves falling against the sand and the gentle rhythmic chirp of crickets in the dunes.

Unlike canned nature sounds created in a studio, renowned acoustic ecologist Gordon Hempton gives you the real deal. He travels the world recording remarkable locations that capture the essence of the place itself. His lifelong mission is to preserve nature through sound, and his soundscapes are produced with such care and quality that you feel as if he has truly brought a slice of the world into your home.

This title is part of The Audible Sleep Collection, exclusive audio experiences created to help you fall asleep, stay asleep, and wake up in the right morning mindset. New and free for members.

Featured Article: Hearing Loss—Navigating the Noise of Grief and Surviving the Silence that Follows


Grief is complicated and messy and painful and frustratingly unique to each and every individual who has experienced loss. There is not a one-size-fits-all balm for that which can feel insurmountable, even unsurvivable. But when you're ready, embracing all of the sounds that made your loved one who they were can bring you a little closer to that memory, sometimes so close it can feel like they're still there.

I've been in Cape Cod a lot of times and by the water at night. Yes there are crickets, but not this bad. I think this setup was in a grassy area and not closer to the beach. More like near houses. More waves and the background bugs would have been nice. The chirping can keep me up.

I love the extremely relaxing sounds of soft ocean waves and slight winds playing repeatedly. This is good for focusing or for background noise.

I love this recording. Relaxes me every time. I’m also amused by the reviews stating “I have never heard crickets on the beach” because they are obviously not from the UK and perhaps forget with their limited world view that the Atlantic Ocean isn’t just a body of water in the US so I give 3 stars for story as this info might help less informed listeners.

Yes - crickets on the beach exist!
