This live stream looks out over the Emsworth area on the Hampshire coast, where the town meets Chichester Harbour and the Solent. Watch it to check conditions on the water and sky before a walk or a trip out, or simply to see how the tide and light change through the day.
Emsworth is a small town on the eastern edge of Chichester Harbour, straddling the border between Hampshire and West Sussex. Its character comes from the water: a working harbour, quiet quays, mudflats that empty and fill with the tide, and a long tradition of boating. The area is known for its sheltered sailing, bird life along the shore and the relaxed pace of a seaside town close to larger cities.
The title places the camera in Emsworth, so expect a coastal scene shaped by the tide and weather rather than a fixed landmark. The view is most rewarding at low tide, when the mudflats are exposed and birds gather to feed, and in the golden hours of early morning and evening. Clear days give the most distant visibility, while grey, windy weather brings a more dramatic look to the water.
The coast here is mild for the UK, with cool summers, mild winters and frequent wind off the Solent, so layers are a good idea year round. Late spring and early autumn are often the most pleasant for walking the shore. Nearby on VizCams you can also open the Thorney Island, Chichester Fishbourne Channel, Portsmouth Royal Navy and Solent cameras to compare conditions along this stretch of coast.
