Live surf cameras and forecasts
Live cameras and wave, wind and swell forecasts for surf spots around the world — side by side on one page, from your home break to the other end of the map.
The cameras are for account holders. Signing up takes a minute and costs nothing.

Sign in and the board opens on every spot with a live camera, grouped by country and region.
Filter by country, region and city. Whatever the filter leaves is what the export takes.
The spot page carries the full forecast, the camera in large, and links to the forecast sites for that break.
Everything here is on this list. Nothing is hidden behind a plan.
Once you are signed in, the board shows every spot that has a working camera, grouped by country and region. A spot with nothing to show is left out rather than shown empty. Each camera plays in place and opens fullscreen.
Some spots show a placeholder with the camera's name instead of a live picture. Nothing is loaded from that site until you ask, so the board stays fast and no camera watches you back — press Play (Show camera) to open it. A few cameras only work on their own site and offer a link that opens in a new tab instead.
Country, region and city, each narrowing the next. The choice stays in the address bar, so a filtered board can be bookmarked, or sent to anyone who has an account of their own.
A star beside a name means somebody who knows the place thinks it is worth a look. It does not change where the spot sits in the list — it is a hint, not a ranking.
Wave height and period, wind speed and gusts, wind and swell direction and swell energy — now and through the next 24 hours. Numbers come from Open-Meteo and are cached briefly, so a busy page does not hammer it.
Give a spot one to five stars and a few words, at the foot of its page. One review each — writing again edits what you said. An admin reads every review before it appears, so yours is shown back to you marked as waiting until then.
The camera in large, the full forecast panel — or the spot own Windguru station where one is set — a description, and the forecast links kept for that break. A picker jumps straight to another camera without going back.
Share sends the app, or one spot, to WhatsApp, Messages, Telegram, email or anywhere else your phone offers. Someone who opens a shared spot without an account lands on that spot once they sign in or sign up.
PDF, Word, Excel or CSV — of the filtered board or of a single spot, with or without forecasts, and in the language you pick for the file rather than the one the page happens to be in.
An account is what opens the cameras. Register with an email and password, or continue with Google where it is enabled. Forgot the password? A reset link goes to your mailbox and is good for one hour, once.
The language switch sits on every page, this one included, and takes the layout direction with it. The light/dark switch is next to it and is remembered on your device.
Once you are signed in, "Request a spot" in the header opens the form: the break, where it is, and a camera link if you know one. It reaches the admin directly, and the answer comes back to you by email.
An admin area holds the spots and their cameras and forecast links, the country/region/city list behind the pickers, the site colours, the logo, the landing page, the About page, the reviews people write, bulk import and export, the user roles and a log of sign-in attempts. A bell in the header reports who signed in and who is waiting for approval; how often the page checks for that, how often the cameras refresh and whether an arrival makes a sound are all settings, as is the link the Share button hands out.
An admin types a password and then a six-digit code — from an authenticator app, or sent to their email when no app is set up. Ten one-use backup codes cover the day neither is at hand. Nothing changes for anyone else: watching the cameras needs a password and nothing more.
