This live camera belongs entirely to the City of Miami Beach · Ocean Rescue (1st Street, South Beach) — their camera, their feed, shared free as a public service to the community. XtremeGator simply embeds it here, with deep gratitude and full credit to them and to everyone who keeps this window onto the ocean open and free for every South Beach local and visitor. Thank you, truly. 🌊
