What you are looking at

PTZtv, a Florida company that runs live cameras at beaches, ports and airports, streams this camera at Fort Lauderdale Beach in partnership with the Courtyard by Marriott Fort Lauderdale Beach and the Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort. Both hotels stand on State Road A1A with wide beach frontage, so the camera looks over the sand, the famous wave-shaped wall along the beach road and the Atlantic Ocean.

Because the beach faces east, sunrise over the ocean is one of the best moments. Through the day you may see swimmers, sunbathers, beach volleyball, joggers and lifeguards, with boats and ships passing offshore, some heading in or out of nearby Port Everglades. Winter brings mild weather and many visitors from the north, spring break fills the sand, and summer brings warm water, afternoon thunderstorms and, in some years, the threat of tropical storms. PTZtv runs two Fort Lauderdale beach cams; this is one of them.

The stream plays as live video on YouTube, and the camera can pan and zoom. A practical tip: watch at dawn in Florida, around 6 to 7 a.m. Eastern time, to see the sun rise straight out of the Atlantic.
