Sandy Shore

Bring the beauty of the rolling surf to your renders with Sandy Shore, a fully modeled environmental prop that adds an extensive stretch of realistic shoreline to any scene.

Featuring detailed wet sand, rolling ocean waves, and realistic seafoam, Sandy Shore is actually a single block of carefully modeled coastline that is then instanced and tiled to seamlessly to extend the environment and make more expansive camera angles possible.

The result is an extremely realistic, natural-looking, and detailed coastal scene that renders quickly.

A less detailed ocean background is included to create the effect of the ocean extending to the visible horizon, and some highly detailed rocks cap the ends of the shoreline. Sandy Shore plays well with your beach HDRIs, and includes Matte Fog and Haze options, as well as three Sun/Sky environmental presets.

Usage Tips/Tricks:
The sand can be lightened if needed by increasing the Diffuse Overlay Weight and adjusting its color and weight settings in the Surfaces tab as desired.
The foam can be lightened by reducing the Metallic Flakes Weight in the Surfaces tab.
Although it renders quickly, drawing the foam can slow down viewport response while you're busy building your scene.

It is recommended to turn off the visibility of the Foam while working and turn it back on when you're ready to render.
Turn off the visibility of any instances that aren't visible in your scene for even faster rendering!
