Live Webcams - Available Only During Missions
Mainlock
Take a look into the Aquarius laboratory’s main lock. If the laboratory appears empty it’s because the scientists are out diving. Or, if the laboratory is dark it’s probably late and the science team is asleep. We don’t always keep the lights on.
LSB
Check out the Life Support Buoy Feed that runs 24/7 looking over the Conch Reef...Periodically you can hear Local vhf channel 16 traffic on this feed... Image will be dark at night.
Aquarius Exterior
This camera is located just outside Aquarius at a depth of 55 feet. You’ll almost always see a lot of tropical fish and if you’re lucky an aquanaut might swim into view. The scene will be dark at night or when thunderstorms are overhead.

Have you ever wanted to be an Aquanaut at Aquarius Reef Base? Well, this is the next best thing! Follow us on Twitter or Facebook to be notified when this cam is live.
Aquarius is located at Conch Reef, 4 miles offshore in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary. The underwater laboratory rests in a sand plain adjacent to deep coral reefs and is currently home to a team of six people. The Aquarius 2000 program, representing the only underwater laboratory operating in our oceans, has taken underwater operations and science to a new level.
Transmission of images, video and data from Aquarius is made possible by a robust wireless network and TerraNovaNet
The Aquarius web cameras broadcast live only during missions. We premiered the image stream in July 2000, hosting the mainlock webcam live for the entire ten day mission, and later we added our aqua webcam that allowed views of Aquarius, aquanauts, and fish..
