@Peter_Cerny @MxD Thanks guys! 
I lived within a stones throw of this type of coast for many years. Lovely renders. One crit though. In the video, the water sound doesn’t match the scene. It sounds more like a river or other running water, IMO. I would substitute some gentle lapping of waves and seagulls.

This is absurdly photoreal, I am specializing in 3D photoreal environment illustrations and I am amazed that you managed to create the animation out of this.

Absolutely spectacular.
Can you guide me on how to do that sky? is that just an HDRI?

@Modron Thanks! Probably you’re right about the sound. I just slapped there some freesound.org coast clip and thats it
@Vadrigar thank you very much! Stepping from a still to animation wasn’t really a big problem since there was not that much to animate. Just a camera, boats, and keyframed noise on water shader
@BaidDSB Thank you! It is just an HDRi but in that scene I also used a distant layer of volumetrics near horizon to blend the hdri and water surface together. Without it HDRI would stand out too much

I love it . very beautiful and intersting project. How many MB (Memorize) does it take full Blend file . And how much time did you spend to make the project

Thank you! Project file of the first scene weight 1600 mb which is not that much I think. I spent about two weeks working on the project for few hours each day
