This live camera looks out over Criccieth, a small seaside town on the Llŷn Peninsula in north Wales. Use it to check how the coast looks right now before you plan a walk, a drive or a day by the water. The page also shows local time and the weather outlook for the town.
Criccieth sits on Cardigan Bay, where the Welsh coast turns from the wide sands of the south toward the rockier shore of the peninsula. The town is known for its medieval castle built on a headland above the harbour, and for its long history as a holiday resort with a promenade and beach. The surroundings are mostly green hills, farmland and open sea, and the light over the bay often changes quickly.
The camera is most useful for judging sea and sky conditions: whether the tide is high or low, how rough the water looks, and how much cloud sits over the bay. Clear mornings and late afternoons tend to give the best visibility across the water. In windy weather the bay can look very different from one hour to the next, so checking the live view just before heading out is a good habit.
Wales has a mild, wet maritime climate, so summers are usually the most comfortable time to visit, though rain can arrive at any season and wind is common on the coast. Criccieth is easy to reach by car and is also connected by rail along the coast. Nearby cameras on this site cover Porthmadog, Portmeirion and the Snowdonia lakes, which are useful if you want to compare conditions across the area.
