With more than 10 years of experience as a professional writer, Megan holds a degree in Mass Media from her home state of Minnesota. After college, she chose to trade in her winter boots for slippahs and moved to the beautiful island of Oahu, where she has been living for more than five years. She lives on the west side but is constantly taking mini-road trips across the island and visits the neighboring islands whenever she can getaway. She loves hiking, snorkeling, locally-grown coffee, and finding the best acai bowl on Oahu.
There is absolutely nothing better than watching the waves of the Pacific Ocean crash against the sand at any of Hawaii’s beautiful beaches — except maybe doing so during sunset. Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, Hawaii’s beach parks are currently closed and all incoming airline passengers are being forced to quarantine for 14 days upon arrival. While we’re hunkered down at home, we can still experience Hawaii’s natural beauty from afar via these 8 coastal live streams. Grab a cup of Kona coffee or a locally-made beer, click on one of these epic live streams, and let your mind relax.
Nestled on Maui’s southwestern coast, the Grand Wailea’s live stream is positioned at the top of the luxury oceanfront resort and offers 360-degree views of Wailea Beach as well as the luau grounds, reflection pool, activity pool, chapel, and so much more. The sunsets are particularly enticing.
Oahu’s north shore is famous for its winter surfing conditions, and the Banzai Pipeline is one of the most well-known surfing spots in the world. Panning from left to right, this live surf cam not only provides the best visual surf report for this notorious surfing destination but is mighty relaxing during uncertain times like these.
Tucked away on the northern coast of Kauai, Hanalei Bay is perhaps one of the prettiest beaches in the entire world, and this live cam from the Hanalei Bay Resort shows it off in all of its spectacular glory.
Positioned over the southern coast of Kauai at Koloa adjacent to the famous Beach House Restaurant, you’ll love experiencing the beauty of the island — from the rugged lava rock coast to the sparkling blue waters of the Pacific Ocean.
Positioned at the Hilton Hawaiian Village, this panoramic live stream showcases the resort’s beachfront - the widest stretch of beach in Waikiki — including a protected snorkeling area and a wonderful surf break, called "Kaisers."
From the rooftop of the Pacific Tsunami Museum, gaze out at Hawaii Island’s beautiful Hilo Bay as you let your worries slowly slip away. One of the few webcams on this list not found at a luxury oceanfront resort, it doesn’t get much more real than this.
In the heart of Lahaina is the Maui Sands Resort, where you’ll discover this live webcam feed from the Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale Marine Sanctuary. Watching the waves crash against the shore will almost guarantee a relaxing experience.
On Hawaii Island’s sunny Kohala Coast, this webcam from the Hilton Waikoloa Village features views of a four-acre saltwater lagoon, palm trees swaying in the breeze, and waves crashing against the rugged lava rock coastline. What more could you ask for?
While we can’t go to the beaches right now, these live streams certainly help at least a little bit. We’d love to hear from you: how are you staying relaxed through these uncertain times? What’s the first Hawaii destination you plan to visit once the shelter in place order is lifted? Sound off in the comments below.
