I checked the Bol webcam before an evening ferry trip and the view of the promenade was already useful for judging the wind and crowds. It is not as polished as a cable travel program, but the live picture loads reliably and feels more honest than a recorded beach documentary.

The boats drifting past and the bright waterfront make this an easy stream to leave open while I work. It feels like a tiny break by the Adriatic.

I tuned in to check the morning sea conditions before planning a walk along the promenade. The live view is more relaxing than most breakfast shows.
