Beach water...

Hi ho everyone,
So i think that my blending is coming along nicely now, and i have another project in mind.
however it requires a beach, and obviously i would want to make some decent looking water, but the only water tutorials i can find are for things like spilled glasses or blood, that kind of close up stuff as apposed to what im after.

could someone point me in the right direction? i have never used water before, but its definately something i wouldlike to learn.

Tedcase,

Take a look at these - you may have to make adjustments for using a later version of Blender, but I think you will find these tuts loaded with good advice.
