This live camera looks out over Monroe County in the Lower Keys, the chain of low coral islands that stretches southwest from the Florida mainland. It is a useful window for anyone planning a trip or simply curious about sea and sky at the southern tip of the continental United States. The page also shows local time and weather so you can judge conditions before you watch.

About the Lower Keys

Monroe County covers the Florida Keys, a string of islands linked by the Overseas Highway and bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the south and the Gulf of Mexico to the north. The Lower Keys are the nearest to Key West and are known for shallow flats, mangrove shorelines and clear water that draws divers, anglers and kayakers. The landscape is flat and low, so the sky and water dominate the view.

What to watch and when

Because the camera is listed as a general outdoor view, the scene depends on its exact angle, which you can judge from the live picture itself. Water, sky and low coastal vegetation are typical for this area. Early morning often brings calmer water and softer light, while late afternoon can show bright sunsets over the Gulf side, weather permitting. Cloud build-up and afternoon storms are common in summer.

Climate and getting around

The Keys have a subtropical climate with warm, humid summers and mild, dry winters, which makes winter the most popular season for visitors. Hurricane season runs from June to November, so check conditions before travelling in late summer and autumn. Key West, the largest city in the chain, lies at the western end of the Keys and is a short drive from this area. Several other cameras are nearby, including views from Key West and Stock Island.
