Welcome to Duluth Harbor Cam! Based in Duluth, Minnesota with several cameras on the roof of the Lake Superior Maritime Visitors' Center, Duluth Harbor Cam (DHC) is a joint effort made possible by the Lake Superior Marine Museum Association (LSMMA), the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, other local organizations and businesses, and most importantly: viewers like you!
This live window to the Northland brings you scenery, sunrises, storms, and even people-watching along Duluth's waterfront, the hub of tourism in the region. Of particular interest are the ships traversing the cold waters of Lake Superior to visit the Twin Ports of Duluth, Minnesota and Superior, Wisconsin. Some of these ships come all the way from the ocean via the St. Lawrence Seaway, making Duluth-Superior one of the world's furthest-inland seaports. We hope you enjoy these sights and sounds and that they provide a calming respite from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

This Canal Cam captures the iconic Duluth ship canal in real time, showcasing the constant flow of Great Lakes and oceangoing vessels as they navigate between Lake Superior and the harbor basin. Watch massive freighters, tankers, and international cargo ships pass through one of North America's most active inland ports, along with changing weather, seasonal beauty, and the vibrant maritime activity that defines this waterfront community.
