Recordist's notes

Gentle waves at Cala Compultitu beach. At that time of day, we were the only people there, It was a very secluded and quiet spot for an evening swim after a long day of traveling in the heat. Since the beach is surrounded by cliffs, the birdsong were nicely reverberated (Tascam FR-AV2 + LOM Uši Pro)
