Kilauea, Halemaumau Crater live camera — Hawaii Island

A monitoring camera the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory keeps trained on the crater from the northwest caldera rim. The eruption that began in December 2024 is episodic: lava fountains every few days to few weeks, and a smouldering crater in between. Staff change the aim and zoom as activity shifts.
