Local time UTC-10Checked 0 viewsHDBeach

This live camera looks out over Poipu Beach on the south shore of Kauai, the most southerly of the main Hawaiian islands. It is useful for checking the surf, the cloud cover and how busy the sand is before you plan a swim, a snorkel or a walk along the coast.

About Poipu and Kauai

Poipu sits on the sunny southern coast of Kauai, known as the Garden Isle for its lush valleys, waterfalls and red earth. The area has a long tradition of resorts and small coves, and the coastline is dotted with lava rock, tide pools and sandy bays. Monk seals are sometimes seen resting on the beaches here, so visitors are asked to keep their distance. The island's relaxed, rural character sets the mood of the whole south shore.

What the camera shows and when to watch

The view is of a beach, so conditions such as wave height, wind on the water and how many people are in the water change through the day. Mornings are often calmer, while the afternoon trade winds can make the sea choppier. Depending on the view, you may see clouds building over the mountains later in the day, which is worth noticing if you plan to visit in person. Checking the feed before leaving for the beach is a simple way to judge the conditions.

Practical notes and nearby cameras

Poipu has a warm, tropical climate with little seasonal change, and the south shore is generally drier than the north and east of the island. Rain can arrive quickly, especially in the wetter months, so check the weather block on this page before you go. Nearby cameras include the Kuhio Shores feed in Koloa-Poipu, and the Whaler's Cove Resort view in Koloa, both a few kilometres away along the same coast.
