This live camera looks out over the Kittery coast in southern Maine, where the Piscataqua River meets the Gulf of Maine. It is a useful window onto the tides, the weather moving in off the Atlantic and the traffic of small boats. Local time and current conditions sit alongside the stream.
Kittery is a small town at the mouth of the Piscataqua River, on the border with New Hampshire. It is one of the oldest settlements in Maine and is closely tied to the sea, with a long history of shipbuilding, fishing and maritime trade. The coastline here is a mix of rocky shore, salt marsh and small islands that lie just offshore.
The camera is listed under the Kittery title and the general category of other, so the exact view is best judged from the live player itself. Coastal views in this part of Maine tend to be most rewarding at high tide and in the morning or evening light, when the water and sky change quickly. Fog and wind can shift the scene from hour to hour.
Summers are mild and pleasant, while winters are cold and often snowy, so the best time to visit in person is late spring through early autumn. Nearby, you can compare this view with the cameras at Wood Island, Appledore Island and Star Island, which show other parts of the same offshore landscape.
