Nice webcams: the city live
Promenade des Anglais, Old Nice, the beaches, the port or the airport: six webcams stream Nice live, 24 hours a day. These feeds are operated by the Nice Côte d'Azur Metropolitan Tourist Office, a camera may occasionally be unavailable.
Want to know whether the Promenade is busy, whether the sea is rough, or simply see Nice from your sofa? The six webcams below cover the city's iconic spots. The images are streamed continuously by the Nice Côte d'Azur Metropolitan Tourist Office (OTM), via the Viewsurf platform, and appear directly on this page. A webcam may be temporarily unavailable: if so, reopen the page a little later.
Mandatory credit for each feed: "© Office de Tourisme Métropolitain Nice Côte d'Azur / Viewsurf".
The 6 live webcams of Nice
From the Baie des Anges to the port, here is the city from six complementary angles.
Promenade des Anglais. The great classic: the seafront, its palm trees and the Baie des Anges.
Promenade du Paillon. The linear park right in the city centre, created over the covered Paillon, between the modern city and Old Nice.
Old Nice. The rooftops and lanes of the old centre, the liveliest district in the city.
Nice beaches. A plunging view over the beaches from the roof of the Hôtel La Pérouse: ideal for gauging the sea and the crowds.
Port of Nice. The lighthouse and the marina, in panoramic view.
Nice airport. A view of Nice Côte d'Azur airport, handy before a departure or to follow activity on the runways.
