10 webcams to see the world from a new point-of-view

The 'Diamond Beach' is so-called for the icebergs that float onto its shoreline from the glacier (one of the tongues of Vatnajokull - Icelandic for 'Vatna's glacier'). Keep an eye on this webcam to catch the glint of the icebergs drifting by; either under the midnight sun in the summer months or, if you're lucky, the northern lights during Iceland's winter.

Get a city fix from the comfort of your living room. This roaming webcam scans Hong Kong's incredible high-rise skyline with Victoria Peak in the background across to the bay that makes this city so iconic. During the day you can see Hong Kong's iconic skyscrapers in detail, while the night's lights offer a different perspective.

Go on safari from the comfort of your sofa and see what you can spot! This webcam overlooks the Zambezi River, home to hippo, elephant, buffalo and even lion. It's a beautiful spot for a sundowner, or a coffee if the time difference means that's more acceptable!

Fancy escaping to tropical island? Look no further. Turn the volume up and listen to the sound of the waves lapping at the shore and enjoy the glow of the sun on the white-sand beach. A glass of wine and a good book and your tropical paradise is (almost) realised.

Transport yourself to one of Italy's most beautiful spots - Positano. This town that clings to the cliff face over the Tyrrhenian Sea has vibrancy from its colourful buildings, as well as a relaxed beach vibe thanks to its secluded coastal position. It's easy to imagine whiling away the hours overlooking this scenery...
