The streams are free, ad-funded via YouTube and run 24\/7 without interruption (except for maintenance or network problems). Some streams (e.g. Hotel Pausania, Hotel San Cassiano, Hotel U-Visionary) are partnerships with Venetian hotels that have installed cameras on their fa\u00e7ades or balconies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We have not installed cameras of our own \u2014 we link to the best available public streams.

All streams run around the clock and show Venice in real time. At night you see the lights at the Salute, San Marco, Rialto and La Fenice; by day the full boat traffic and everyday life. If you open several streams in parallel, you also hear the soundscape from different parts of the city.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n<details><summary>Which webcam is the most important for trip planning?<\/summary><div><p>Three combined: <strong>Grand Canal from hotel windows<\/strong> for weather and visibility, <strong>San Marco Basin<\/strong> for the acqua alta check (the most important stream when there is high-water risk), <strong>Rialto Bridge<\/strong> for how busy the city is. If you open all three briefly at 8:00 on your travel day, you know very precisely what to expect.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n<details><summary>Which webcam shows St Mark&#8217;s Square directly?<\/summary><div><p>Currently the <strong>San Marco Basin stream<\/strong> shows the lagoon side of the Piazza (fondamenta + Riva degli Schiavoni). A separate stream directly onto the Piazza San Marco is in preparation and will be added as soon as it is available.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n<details><summary>What if a stream is offline?<\/summary><div><p>The YouTube streams very rarely go offline, usually only during storms or maintenance. If a stream does not load: wait briefly, reload the page, or go directly to the stream overview of the &#8220;I Love You Venice&#8221; channel on YouTube. If a stream fails permanently, we replace it with an alternative.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n<details><summary>Are there webcams on the Adriatic or in Murano\/Burano?<\/summary><div><p>For the <strong>Adriatic beaches<\/strong> (Jesolo, Cavallino-Treporti, Chioggia\/Sottomarina) we have a dedicated overview page: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.treffpunkt-venedig.de\/webcams-adria\/\">Adriatic beach webcams<\/a>. Directly from Murano or Burano, not at present \u2014 but via the <strong>Laguna Nord webcam<\/strong> (Cantieri Biasin) you can see the island of Murano and Sant&#8217;Erasmo from a distance in clear weather.

Mobile data: each stream uses about 30\u201350 MB per hour \u2014 considerably less at reduced resolution.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n<details><summary>At what tide level is St Mark&#8217;s Square under water on the webcam?<\/summary><div><p>From about 90 cm at the Punta della Salute reference point, acqua alta starts to become visible on St Mark&#8217;s Square. At 100 cm a larger part of the Piazza is under water. At 110+ cm the MOSE storm-surge barrier is activated and closes the lagoon. \u2192 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.treffpunkt-venedig.de\/en\/acqua-alta-venice\/\">Acqua alta Venice \u2014 levels and forecast<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<aside class=\"tv-reisebuero-cta\"><h2>Fallen in love live?
