Thailand Webcams

The last 2 days have been quite sunny, rather nice actually, but (poor us) we have been so busy round the house with painting, moving furniture, cleaning, plus taking kids to school/picking up kids from school, shopping.. No time to sit and relax in the sun. We did figure that today, finally, my wife and I could take it easy, have a nice lunch somewhere... then my daughters teacher called to say she was not feeling well. When I got there she'd just been sick, so no relaxing day for mum and dad! Well, we have the weekend to look forward too. It's a long weekend, as Monday is Visakha Bucha day - aka Buddha's Birthday.

Anyway... Webcams.

I find webcams a great way to quickly compare weather in different areas of Thailand. It's not always that easy to find a webcam on the internet. If you search Google you get all kinds of results, but often leading to webcams that are no longer operating... for example, search for "Phuket webcam" and you get this and this in the top 2 places. Both are non functional.

But no worries! I have found a few good Thai webcams from various locations. If you know of any more, please do leave a comment and let me know.

(Update 2009) Webcams come and go - if you know one, let me know!

Phuket Webcam - Karon Beach - the Marina resort webcam looks over part of Karon Beach, best webcam in Phuket that I know of.

Hi Jamie,

I check out your website everyday especially your weather blogs.
Thanks for the tips on the webcams. I check the Marina web cam all the time and noticed it has been down for a couple of week. However i went back into my internet history and clicked on past websites and it works now.. the only thing wrong is the time and date, but at least i can still see what it's like in Phuket. Only 3 weeks till we are there.. i hope the weather is nice!

Regards.
Izzy

Hi Jamie
I love your blog!
We're arriving in Phuket on Monday 19th May and I've become addicted to watching the webcam from Marina Phuket Resort in Karon which you state has disappeared. Here's the link I've been viewing from:

I hope this helps...

Hi ozmouse,

The Marina webcam at Karon seems just fine to me. Dark clouds over the hills...

The "webcam" at the Phuket Plaza website is a photo and it has never changed as long as I can remember.
