The scene is a coastal environment with black volcanic rocks in the foreground and the ocean stretching to the horizon. Waves crash against the rocks in the midground, creating white foamy splashes. The sky is blue with scattered white and gray clouds. The rocks closest to the viewer are a mix of dark gray and black, with some patches of green moss or algae. The water appears turquoise where it is agitated by the waves, transitioning to a darker blue further out. No people are visible in the frame.
