Lisbon Falls: 1 Live Camera — South Africa, 94 m

The name says Lisbon, but this is a 94-metre waterfall in Mpumalanga, South Africa — the highest in the province, splitting into three at the lip.

What you can see

The name says Lisbon, but this is not Portugal. The falls are at Graskop in Mpumalanga, South Africa.

At 94 metres it is the highest waterfall in Mpumalanga. It splits into three strands at the lip before dropping down the rock face, and on a high-water day the spray reaches the viewpoint. Counting how many strands the water has broken into gives you a fair idea of how much is coming over that day.

One thing to be clear about: the sound on this camera is a looped recording, and voices of people at the plunge pool are not broadcast. The water you are hearing is not the water of this moment.

When to watch

The provider gives no season. A waterfall runs higher after rain, but we are not going to set a season here.

South Africa is 7 hours behind Japan, with no daylight saving. Local 06:00 is 13:00 in Japan, local noon is 19:00, and local 18:00 is 01:00. So the local daylight hours run from Japanese afternoon to late evening and you can watch at a normal hour.

The southern hemisphere reverses the seasons: winter in Japan is summer there.

If it isn't showing

It also appears on the South Africa page. Rivers and waterfalls are under River and landforms under Nature.
