Santa Monica - Beach is a live camera focused on Santa Monica Beach in California, with views of the bay, the pier and the Pacific Ocean. The image shows the sand, the movement along the waterfront, the open sea and part of one of the best-known coastal areas in the Los Angeles region. On clear days, the view can stretch toward Malibu and the Point Mugu coastline. During the stream, viewers tend to see changing daylight, sky conditions, waves, surfers, beachgoers, visitors on the pier and boats or birds crossing the horizon. Sunset is often one of the most striking moments, with the camera showing the late-afternoon colors over the Pacific and the beach slowly changing as the day ends.
