Starting a project where I am trying to put together a collection of live web cams showing views of coastal areas in the Pacific Northwest.
British Columbia Coast
Favorite out of BC: Wickaninnish Inn – Tofino, BC
A beautiful scene with the first live audio I have found:
Ocean Village Resort MacKenzie Beach – Tofino, BC
Pacific Sands Beach Resort – Tofino, BC
Boundary Bay, Tsawwassen, BC
Denny Island, BC Cam
Washington Coast
Here is the very best example in WA of what I have found so far:
Port of Friday Harbor Marina Live Stream
What makes this one really nice is that we do not have to go to a host page first to click on it, and we are not looking at fixed images.
Second favorite:
Live Cam – Westport, Washington
We must go to a host page first, then click on the cam.

Checking back to view different weather and tide conditions, views at various times of day and seasonal changes. Very nice to view full screen.
Camera angle rotates to show views of everything from Westhaven Drive out to the entrance of Garys Harbor, the jetty and Half Moon Bay.
