Why these live webcams matter

WebcamMadeira.com curates live HD cameras across every region of Madeira so you can plan hikes, surf sessions, and sunset strolls with confidence. Each stream is hand-selected for reliability and real-time weather accuracy.

Because the island contains dozens of microclimates, a single forecast rarely reflects local reality. Compare north and south coast feeds, check if levada trails are above the cloud line, and see harbour traffic before you drive down to the waterfront.

The project is powered entirely by privacy-respecting technology: no invasive trackers, no autoplay surprises, and no paywalls—just fast, secure access to the best viewpoints on the island.

Quick ways to use the streams every day

Bookmark the locations you visit most so you can check sea state or cloud cover within seconds.
Before heading out for a hike, use mountain webcams to see if peaks are clear or shrouded in clouds.
Check multiple surf spots at once to find the best waves and wind conditions for your session.

Smart Combined Filters

"porto funchal" + "night" to surface harbour cameras with strong evening lighting.
"wind" + "surf" pulls together cameras that surfers use to judge swell and coastal gusts.
"HD" + "airport" highlights high-definition feeds pointed at runways and apron activity.
