webcams has not been working

I noticed the site’s cams sometimes glitch during heavy traffic or storms, which might explain the recent issues. When something similar happened while recording road trips, switching to the best car camera for vlogging solved a lot—good video and no weird lags. Maybe a setup like that could help as a backup when the main feeds are down.

Someone should tell Jean Claude!

Something to squabble about

Love the “squabble“ pun! BTW . . . because it occurred far back in this thread, note that my comment about Jean Claude was in response to a post that described that “[p]igeons are rats with wings”

I suspected as much! “Don’t feed the bots!”

Just for the record, squab is one thing that does Not taste like chicken. Not a fan.

Jean-Claude’s preparation and presentation at L’Esprit won my vote

Hello everyone, I just remembered the wonderful livestreams from St. Barth on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/@st-barthlivecam5889/streams). However, two cameras that provided a closer look at the port of Gustavia (approximately from the “Le Select Bar”) seem to have disappeared—does anyone know if they will be restored, or is there a website where this issue can be reported?

I look forward to your responses—thank you in advance!

Seem to be working here: https://www.sbhonline.com/photo-galleries/webcams/

Hi JEK, many thanks for your prompt reply and for sharing the link! That cam is great, too! Unfortunately, it's not the one I was thinking of.
I did some further research and on this website you can see a still image of the two webcams when they were still working - the first one on the left at the first row ("Port of Gustavia – St. Barths – French Antilles Live webcam Caribbean") and the second one from the left at the second row (Live webcam St Barth island- Fond de Rade – French Antilles – Caribbean"): https://www.whatsupcams.com/en/webcams/st-barths/st-barths/gustavia/
The viewpoint seems to be more like a close-up of the harbor than an overlook as in the cam that is still working.

Internet problems on the island this morning.

I believe all those cams are privately owned and shared and sometimes get tired and quit.

Took a look in YT and nothing other than these from above seem to be working.

Hi SailingDaisy, the two webcams you are looking for were obscured by a construction site back in January. It's possible the cameras were removed completely in the process.
