We've been watching the ships arriving live in anticipation of seeing the Norwegian Jewel arrive on 1st December. The site went down a few days ago and now requires a username and password, with no avenue to create one.  Hopefully it will sort itself out, we need our fix!

Having the same problem.

There is another site that is quite good, but they need to get up there and clean the Camera . cafesydney.com  ( Live Cam )

You are so right - the view would be fantastic if it wasn't so blurry. It's almost as opaque as our bathroom window!

I don't have much success with the earth cam ones and the YHA one has limited hours, but I hadn't found the Luna Park one - it looks pretty good and will be a good sub if Webcam Sydney doesn't get its act together. Thank you.

I have not been on the WebcamSydney website for a month, but checking it today it looks like the guy / people running it has not paid there web hosting bill, as the login page says "Suspended" :classic_sad:.

Hopefully it might come back in a few days time!

At lest we have other web cams to look at :classic_smile:

The Quay West one is excellent but I loved that Webcam Sydney was live - watching the nose of the ships sliding into view was a nerdy thrill.

Oh dear, it's been going a long time - hope he is motivated to get it going again.

What am I doing wrong, still getting username and password box up.

 

I would not know sorry, Try refresh or switch off and open again? With the Fremantle cams they open up at where you were last time you checked in. just a thought.

 

Anyway nor seeing much this morning . Its all a blur . Heard a forecast for heavy rain ?????

Another feature of the Sydney cam is the time lapse feature.

For those who may not have found it, click the 3 line menu bar at the top of the page and select Replays and events, then time lapse and select the time you want and you can then watch the arrival and departure of  cruise ships at will.

Thanks, I thought the light was really nice, makes some of the buildings really pop.  It's a good camera - one of the sharpest in the area.  I just had to post it - bursting with excitement - somehow her arrival in the port we will be embarking from seems momentous to me.
