Just had a look. It doesn't appear to be working and the picture must be the worst in the Bristol Channel. Ilfracombe certainly puts Swansea to shame. Come on Swansea sort it out.
 
Weather station has been down for a while...CHA used to have a good webcam on the Environmental building, the type you could control....wonder what happened to it...I could zoom in on my boat on the trots in CYC to check it was still there.
 
The Cardiff weather station has now been upgraded, you may still be using the old link. This new link https://stormcentral.waterlog.com/public/CHABarrage gives weather information for the bay and Flatholm and also environmental info such as dissolved oxygen and water temp. I remember the webcam you are referring to, not sure what happened to that. A webcam would be useful but Flatholm to get an idea of sea state may be even more useful than the bay. CBYC have one covering part of the bay, think it still updates http://www.cbyc.co.uk/webcam/ . CBYC also have a weather station available online.

Bit of an error in the title surely - the Swansea webcam is not run by the Marina, and the actual camera if on a café/coffee bar mid way along the bay nearly a mile from the marina!!

Agree that some sort of webcam provided by either the marina or yacht club could be beneficial though...............
 

you can get Ilfracombe webcam on mobile, iPhone and Androids, but you may need to download a software link
