Waikiki Aquarium: 180° Panoramic Shoreline Live View

What The Live Stream Shows

Looking out over the shallow, sandy bottom of the Waikiki channel, the camera captures the clear, gradient blues of the Pacific Ocean meeting the shore. The wide-angle view takes in the stretch of beach, the seawall, and the distant coastline of Waikiki, including glimpses of the high-rise hotels and the historic Diamond Head crater on clear days. The water is typically calm and shallow here, making it a popular spot for snorkelers, paddlers, and swimmers throughout the day.
