Fort Lauderdale Beach Live Rooftop Cam from the Elbo Room

About this camera

Fort Lauderdale Beach wakes up live on ElboTV, with an unobstructed rooftop view from the historic Elbo Room, established in 1938. The camera is made for reading the beach flags and checking the wind before you hit the water or launch the boat, and for enjoying sunrise over the Atlantic, golden hour and every sky in between.

The Elbo Room stands at the corner of Las Olas Boulevard and State Road A1A, right across from the sand. From its rooftop, the view takes in the beach, the famous wave wall along A1A, palm trees and the ocean stretching to the horizon. Fort Lauderdale Beach is wide and well kept, with lifeguard towers and a promenade, and it is popular for swimming, sunbathing, kitesurfing and paddleboarding.

Offshore, you can often see cruise ships and cargo vessels heading to and from Port Everglades, just to the south, as well as sailboats and fishing boats. The color-coded flags show swimming conditions, from calm days to rip current warnings.

The dry season, from November to April, brings sunny weather and the most visitors, while summer is hot, with afternoon storms. Hurricane season runs from June to November.

The stream is provided by the Elbo Room, home of ElboTV.
