This live camera looks out over Wellington Airport, the gateway to New Zealand's capital on the southern tip of the North Island. Check it before a flight to see how the runway and apron look right now, and whether the wind is picking up over the harbour.
About the capital's airport
Wellington Airport sits on the edge of the city, close to Lyall Bay and the Miramar peninsula, with the harbour and hills of the capital nearby. Wellington is known as a windy, compact city with a strong cafe and arts scene, and the airport is one of the few in the country where the runway runs close to the water. The surrounding landscape is a mix of coast, bush-covered hills and suburban streets.
What the camera shows
Because the view is tied to an airport, the most useful things to watch are aircraft movements, cloud cover and wind direction, which often changes quickly over Cook Strait. Mornings are usually calmer, while afternoons can bring stronger gusts. Depending on the view, you may also see the coastline and the sea beyond the runway, especially on clear days when visibility is good.
Climate and getting around
Wellington has a mild temperate climate with cool winters and warm summers, though weather can change within hours. The city is well connected by road and rail. Nearby cameras on VizCams include Wellington itself, the Foxton Beach surf club, Castlepoint and Mount Ruapehu near Ohakune, which give a sense of the wider region.
