Live Shark Cam

The Monterey Bay Habitats Exhibit

This live webcam looks into the Monterey Bay Habitats tank at the Monterey Bay Aquarium, a cavernous hourglass-shaped exhibit designed to give big sharks room to glide and turn. Its rocky reef and sandy seafloor recreate the cold-water world found just beyond the aquarium walls.

Sharks, Rays and Reef Fish

Watch for broadnose sevengill sharks, leopard sharks, spiny dogfish and the elusive Pacific angel shark cruising the reef. Bat rays and big skates pass the window, while sturgeon, rockfish, giant sea bass and bright garibaldi share the spacious habitat.

A Window into Monterey Bay

Set on historic Cannery Row in Monterey, California, this real-time view offers an intimate look at the marine life of the bay. The exhibit mirrors the kelp-fringed waters of the Pacific, making it a compelling portal into the region's underwater ecosystem.
