Mori Point Live Cam, Pacifica, California
About this camera
Chamberlin Nature streams live ocean views from the Sharp Park beach area of Pacifica, California, about 15 minutes south of San Francisco. This view looks toward Mori Point, and it is one of four cameras on the channel, which also include a view north from the Pacifica Pier.
Mori Point is a rugged headland at the southern end of Sharp Park Beach. It is part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, and its trails climb to the top for sweeping views of the coast. The area has been restored as a refuge for two endangered species, the California red-legged frog and the San Francisco garter snake, one of the most beautiful snakes in North America.
Sharp Park Beach is a long stretch of sand and pebbles backed by a seawall and a historic golf course. The surf here can be powerful, so it is better suited to experienced surfers and anglers than to swimmers. Pelicans, cormorants and gulls are common, and harbor seals sometimes appear.
Pacifica is a coastal city just south of San Francisco, where Highway 1 winds along cliffs and beaches. Its weather is cool all year, with frequent summer fog and the sunniest days often in spring and autumn. Gray whales migrate past from about December to May, and humpbacks are common in summer and autumn. California uses Pacific Time.
Winter storms send big waves crashing against Mori Point, a dramatic sight on the camera.
