Perched on the rocky Marina shoreline, The Wave Organ is a contemplative, tide-powered sculpture that translates the bay’s movement into haunting musical notes. Visitors come for its unique acoustic installations, waterfront views and the meditative, slightly windswept atmosphere — expect uneven stone paths, seasonal tides influencing the sounds, and excellent photo opportunities at high or low tide.
