Juneau's cruise berths line the Gastineau Channel under Mount Roberts, and the wall here has the finest vantage in the family: the Mount Roberts Tram cameras look down the channel at the docks, joined by the Douglas Island feeds across the water. Twelve cameras within 8 km — a small wall with a grandstand view.

The board above reads the channel’s live presence off AIS. Juneau is the Alaska trade in miniature: on a summer day the berths hold more cruise passengers than the town holds residents, and the board fills and empties with the tide of ships; in winter the channel belongs to the ferries and the board is quiet, as it should be.

The board — who is in port right now

Every AIS passenger vessel inside Port of Juneau’s board radius, named as it broadcasts, marked in port when it is stopped and underway when it is moving in the port area. Reports up to about ten minutes old are admitted; older reports are dropped, never carried forward as if live.

Live AIS presence · refreshes every 30 s

Listening for ships at Port of Juneau…

This is a live presence board, not a departure board: it lists the passenger vessels transmitting inside the port area right now, from their own AIS broadcasts (up to about 10 minutes old — the feed drops anything older). No sailing times are shown, because no schedule feed backs them — for departure times, use the cruise line or the port authority.

Best time to watch Juneau

Watch the channel in the long northern evening: ships that have been alongside all day casting off in sequence, down the Gastineau past Douglas Island, while the tram cameras hold the whole departure from above. Low cloud is Juneau’s other mood — the berths vanish into it and the board becomes the only window in town.

All 12 Juneau port cameras, live

Every catalogue camera within 8 km of the Port of Juneau centre, nearest first — the wall this page’s count comes from. Juneau Tram cameras — looking down on the cruise berths · Douglas Island cameras, across Gastineau Channel.

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.

How to use the Juneau board

  1. 1Start with the board: it names the ships actually in port right now — if your ship is not listed, it is not transmitting here yet.
  2. 2Then watch the wall: find the berth-side and inlet cameras in the explorer and keep them open through the sailaway window.
  3. 3A ship marked 'underway in port area' is moving — casting off, arriving, or shifting berth; 'in port' means stopped at the berth or the anchorage.
  4. 4Check the weather panel before reading a hazy frame as a quiet port — harbour weather hides fleets whole.
  5. 5For departure times, use your cruise line or the port authority — this board measures presence and prints no times it cannot source.

Juneau cruise port — FAQ

Is this a departure board for Juneau?+
No — it is a live presence board, and the difference matters. It lists the cruise ships physically inside Port of Juneau's area right now, from their own AIS broadcasts. This site holds no cruise schedule data, so it prints no departure times rather than invent them. For sailing times, your cruise line or the port authority is the source; for which hulls are actually here, this board is the instrument.
Why does Juneau get a board when bigger ports do not?+
Because the evidence rule cuts both ways: Juneau has real cameras aimed at its cruise waterfront — the tram feeds above the berths — and live AIS in the channel. Ports ten times its size with no camera on their water (Port Canaveral, Southampton) fail the same rule Juneau passes.
How many cameras are in the Juneau wall, and how is the count worked out?+
This page's wall holds 12 cameras: every camera in the WorldEye catalogue within 8 km of the port centre the site's scope registry uses — the same rule the explorer below serves, so the number you read is the number you get.
Is it free to watch?+
Yes — every camera on this page opens free on WorldEye, with no account and no signup, and the live board is free too. A free account raises your daily camera-open limit; the globe's full maritime firehose is a VIP layer, but the port boards are public, full stop.
