LIVE CAMERA NETWORK
Watch 39 live cameras in San Francisco — free on the WorldEye globe.
Camera index last updated October 23, 2026.
There are 39 live webcams in San Francisco, United States, on WorldEye — public feeds published by Caltrans, ndbc-buoycam and caltrans, all free to watch with no signup. San Francisco accounts for about under 1% of the 54,025 cameras WorldEye indexes in the United States, and every feed sits on the same searchable live map as WorldEye's 74,229 cameras worldwide.
Featured feeds in the index include TV305 -- US-101 : Just North of Candlestick Park, TVD22 -- I-80 : SFOBB Lower Deck Sterling Onramp and TV388 -- SR-1 : Just South of Presidio Tunnel — and every camera in the list below links straight into the live globe with that feed open, so you can go from this page to a live view in one tap.
Every camera in the San Francisco index publishes still images that refresh at short intervals rather than continuous video. That is how the operators run them — and it is enough to judge congestion, weather and road conditions at a glance, which is what these feeds are for.
Use the grid the way it is meant to be used: a two-minute check of the cameras on your route before you leave. What is happening on the ground — a jam, a closure, a storm moving in — shows up on these feeds as it happens, not as a forecast said it would.
Is it snowing in San Francisco right now?
WorldEye has no live weather feed wired for San Francisco, so this page won't guess. The cameras are the ground truth — open a live feed and look at the roads, roofs and trees directly.
How bad is traffic in San Francisco right now?
A camera index can't honestly score congestion — nothing here measures traffic speed. What it can do is show you: 39 live cameras are listed under San Francisco in the index, and 14 of them watch US 101 alone. Open the feed on your route and judge the lanes yourself.
All US live traffic cameras →Are San Francisco's cameras live right now?

Loading live cameras…Fetching the live index for San Francisco.
Every card is the camera's real live feed: snapshot cards refresh about every 15 seconds, stream cards play live in the grid (a few at a time, the same budget the map tiles use) and in full when you open a camera. Feeds are provided by their operators and public sources; a camera whose stream has gone off air shows as unavailable rather than playing a recording.

Place search © OpenStreetMap contributors; routing is the same directions service the live map uses. Cameras are the public feeds in the WorldEye index — a camera shows here only when it has a feed the preview can actually play.
