A few months back forum members were kind enough to give me suggestions about a proposed surf trip to Rosarito, it never happened but I have been enjoying the blogs and am sorry about the problems for the Mexican people. Sitting out here in Joshua Tree it was great fun to watch the Rosarito Beach Webcam courtesy of The Rosarito Inn Condominium Hotel, and now it has been gone for a few months. It really gave me a positive impression of Rosarito and made me want to visit in spite of the problems because you could see how tranquilo it looked. My suggestion is for somebody with some pull to get that webcam working again, as they say one picture is worth a thousand words. Also, Joshua Tree is a great fall back area for people like Marjorie Ann or Whoosh, good value and amazingly unspoiled. Cheers

I will do some checking around for new camera feeds. The new mayor is very pro-tourism and will see the value in beach cams. My beach cameras are internet viewable, but I haven't been able to seperate the private and public cameras at our home for the video feed to be made public yet. I may have to buy a seperate IP server for them.

Just saying but that view from the Rosarito Inn Condominium Hotel was excellent, thanks.

sorry- I'm "customer experience" driven out of habit....

A beach cam is a very cost effective way for businesses or entrepreneurs to bring traffic to their website, it is a WIN WIN.

Surf in Rosarito????

Yes, it looks like there is surf and compared to Los Angeles South Bay very good. Thanks to whoever put the cam back up, it is good.

Wow! That is a very good price for the system. What I really like is using remote storage of the video; even if the crooks tear down the camera and take it, the filmed event remains secure up to and including the moment they take it down.

Nice...
