CoconOcean waves on your Mac desktop
Seen from above, like a beach at your feet: waves run up the bottom of your screen in a line of foam, then slip back, leaving wet sand that slowly dries.
Waves and lacy foam washing up the bottom of a Mac desktop. This is the real app, recorded on a Mac.
For macOS 14 Sonoma and later
What you get
Each wave has its own shoreline, with wide tongues of water and a thin, bright line of foam on its front. Behind it trails a lace of bubbles, and when it pulls back, the sand it reached stays darker and glossy for a moment. Three lines of waves never reach the same point together, so the sea is always moving. Small glints sparkle on the deeper water.
The waves stay at the bottom of the screen, behind your windows, and leave the rest of your desktop free. The intensity sets how high and how fast they run; Swell makes the sea bigger, with taller waves and a deeper roar.
Settings
- Visual intensity, which sets how high the waves reach

Good to know
Ocean is part of Cocon Pro, a one-time purchase. You can preview it for 30 seconds before deciding.
Cocon lives in the menu bar. It draws on the desktop, behind your windows, never takes a click, needs no account and no special permission, and pauses when a full-screen app covers it.
