Welcome to the Preston Beach Webcam

In Partnership with The Boathouse Paignton & Safegard Security.

We are currently trialling a new webcam in Torquay, near to Torre Abbey Sands, located at TQ Beerworks. This will benefit the local beach users, sea swimmers, paddleboarder and surfers. Once again, please check back soon for further developments!

Unfortunately, due to the recent closure of the Boathouse the webcam is currently offline. This is beyond our control, but we are still attempting to contact the current owners to try and restore the stream. We are aware that many of you are missing this stream, and have our apologies for the break in service. Please keep checking back regularly as we hope to restore the stream very soon.

If you feel that this webcam provides a valuable resource please consider donating to it’s upkeep by pressing the “Donate” button! Thank You!

Please note - The quality of this webcam is dependent on several factors, such as your internet speed, viewing device and the local weather conditions (we are by the sea!). We endeavour to keep the camera clean whenever possible. 

Having Trouble? The player will not work on some IOS devices (Apple) and is therefore best viewed on a desktop browser.

This webcam is for live view purposes only, and images are not being recorded or stored. The system is being run in conjunction with TQ Beerworks and Safegard Security. Third Party Sources do not have permission to use this stream for any reason.

If you have any questions or queries regarding this webcam, please do not hesitate to contact us on 01803 523455 or email sales@safegardsecurity.co.uk

Safegard Security cannot guarantee that this stream will always be live, and it may be taken down at any time.


In early 2020, we donated a webcam to Paignton Zoo for their Flamingo enclosure.
