Fort Lauderdale Beach Live Cam

This is one of PTZtv's two Fort Lauderdale beach cams, delivering a live view of one of South Florida's best-known stretches of sand. Fort Lauderdale Beach runs along the Atlantic, backed by palm trees and State Road A1A, with its famous wave-shaped white wall separating beach from road.

The city has transformed from its spring break heyday into a stylish resort destination, with oceanfront hotels, restaurants and the Las Olas area nearby. Fort Lauderdale is also known as the Venice of America for its many miles of canals, and Port Everglades, just to the south, is one of the world's busiest cruise ports.

Things to spot

• Cruise ships heading out to sea in late afternoon
• Sunrise over the Atlantic
• Surfers, swimmers and joggers

Winter and spring are high season, while summer brings heat and storms, and hurricane season lasts from June through November. The stream is provided by PTZtv.
