The beach of Stardew Valley is relaxing, but the sounds here can be a bit simple and repetitive. With the Beach Sounds mod, the sounds of the ocean waves hitting the sand will sound a lot more realistic thanks to improved audio quality and a less static rhythm.

This is a great mod to install if you spend a lot of time fishing or digging at the beach. This will make it easier for your thoughts to drift away as you get swept up in the meditative practice of fishing.

7 Custom Summer Sounds

Like Beach Sounds, Custom Summer Sounds adds a bunch of new summer soundscapes so that the entire season will sound more vibrant. Summer is the busiest season of them all for both humans and animals, so it makes sense that this season would be a lot louder and busier than winter or fall.

One thing this mod removes is the faint buzzing sound that can be heard in the summer ambiance. Though summer is full of insects, it's also full of birds, which this mod allows you to hear with better quality and dynamics.

3 Sounds of Rain

As important as rainfall is to Stardew Valley on a gameplay mechanic level, it's quite plain when it comes to the music and audio.

1 Better Jukebox

It's always a treat whenever a video game includes an interactable jukebox, but sometimes it can be bothersome when the interaction has limited functionality. Unfortunately, this was the case in Stardew Valley with both the saloon jukebox and the mini jukebox you can acquire and place on your farm.

With Better Jukebox, there is now a much more in-depth menu that gives you the ability to select songs with precision. This is perhaps the ultimate way to constantly customize your audio for the rest of your Stardew Valley hours.
