Live Surf Cams

Opportunity

The UK has some of the finest surf beaches in the world and some of the best and most well known of these are in the South West of England. Here, the huge fetch of the Northern Atlantic can produce almost perfect surfing conditions, recognised both in the UK and around the world. These beaches regularly host world class surfing events with top surfers from Hawaii , Australia and the USA attending.

To the surfer, forecasts and still photos are fine but seeing the breaking surf, as it happens, is believing!

Solution

fiNETra installed its first camera at Polzeath Beach in Cornwall in 2006. Since then a further seven cameras have been added at Croyde Bay, Harlyn Bay, Cardigan Bay, Boscombe Pier, Bournemouth, Fistral Beach and Widemouth Bay.

The PTZ (pan, tilt and zoom) cameras are regularly updated providing high definition, TV quality, live action to fiNETra's own website livesurfcams.co.uk.

The Fistral Beach camera is also streamed direct to ITV's own website at www.itvlocal.com.
