Welcome to your quick guide to finding Chatham webcams. If you're looking for real-time views of Chatham, MA, these community live cams are the perfect way to stay connected to Cape Cod.
Chatham Squire Main Street Webcam
The Chatham Squire Main Street webcam is the town's best-known live cam, often searched as the Squire Cam. It is mounted at The Chatham Squire, 487 Main Street, and streams in HD in two directions, east and west along Main Street. Use it to check summer crowds and the line outside the Squire, see how busy downtown is before you look for parking, or simply watch Main Street from afar in the off-season.
Yellow Umbrella Books Main Street Cam
A second Main Street view comes from the Chatham GuestCAM at Yellow Umbrella Books, 501 Main Street, in the heart of downtown Chatham. It takes a new picture every hour on the half hour from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Pair it with the Squire cam to see both ends of the shopping district. If you are planning a day downtown, our Downtown Chatham guide covers shops, dining, and parking.
Chatham Harbor and Waterfront Webcams
Stage Harbor Cam
The Stage Harbor TeleCAM posts a new snapshot every hour from sunrise to sunset, plus a daily 180-degree panorama of the harbor, rather than continuous live video. It is the quickest way to check water, sky, and boat activity on the south side of town. Nearby, the Stage Harbor Lighthouse is one of Chatham's lesser-known landmarks.
Oyster Pond and River Cam
The Oyster Pond and River TeleCAM uploads fresh images every 30 minutes from sunrise to sunset. It is useful before a swim at Oyster Pond, one of Chatham's calm-water family beaches.
Ryder's Cove Boat Yard Webcams
Ryder's Cove Boat Yard at 46 Ryders Cove Road in North Chatham streams two live HD views from the boat yard, one facing north and one facing east.
Chatham Municipal Airport Webcam
The Chatham Municipal Airport TeleCAM posts runway panoramas twice an hour from sunrise to sunset, handy for pilots and anyone watching the weather over West Chatham.
