Bar Crossing Web Camera Trial

NSW Maritime has extended its trial of web-cam vision of the coastal bars to help boat owners in preparing for a voyage offshore.

This is just one part of a suite of measures being pursued by NSW Maritime to address bar crossing safety in this State.

When considering crossing a bar, the best catch phrase for skippers – who are ultimately responsible for the safety of all on board – is ‘If in doubt, don’t go out’. Here is a list of coastal bars in NSW.

Logging on to find live web camera footage may be very useful in making this decision.

Below is a list of live web-cameras currently installed along the NSW coastline:

North Coast Ballina Brunswick Heads Coffs Harbour Iluka \ Yamba Port Macquarie South West Rocks Tweed Heads	Hunter Shoal Bay, Port Stephens Swansea Nobby's Beach, Newcastle
