This live camera looks out over Broadsands Beach on the south Devon coast near Paignton. It is a practical way to check how the beach looks before you travel, whether the tide is in or out and how the sea and sky are behaving. The stream is provided by its owner and embedded here with a link to the source.

About the Broadsands coast

Paignton sits on Torbay, one of the best-known bays on the English Riviera, with Torquay a short distance along the shore. Broadsands is a sandy cove framed by red cliffs and wooded slopes, a quieter spot than the town's seafront. The area is known for its mild climate, palm-lined promenades and a long tradition of seaside holidays, and it draws families, walkers and surfers alike.

What to watch and when

Depending on the view, you may see sand and shallow water at low tide, the swell rolling in, or small boats moored offshore. Mornings often bring calmer water and softer light, while afternoons can be busier. Clear days show the headland and the cliffs best, and stormy weather with wind from the southwest gives a dramatic picture of the bay.

Visiting and nearby places

Summers are warm and the sea is at its most inviting from July to September, while spring and autumn suit walkers. Winters are mild but windy. Nearby cameras include Torquay harbour, Oddicombe Beach and Torquay itself, which make it easy to compare conditions along the bay from one visit to the next.
