Tropical Escapes

The tropics are the band of the planet between the two tropics, roughly 23 degrees either side of the equator, and live tropical webcams cover the beaches, reefs, harbours and islands inside it: the Caribbean and the Gulf of Thailand, Bali and the Philippines, the Indian Ocean islands, Hawaii and the Pacific. The rules are the same everywhere in the band. The sun rises around six and sets around six all year, with a twilight that lasts twenty minutes; the sea stays between 26 and 30 degrees; and the year divides into a dry season and a wet one rather than four. The Caribbean is driest from December to April and watches for hurricanes from June to November; Thailand's Gulf coast is at its best from January to April; the Pacific runs the other way. A tropical beach webcam at 11:00 UTC shows a Caribbean morning and a Thai sunset.
