Santos Dumont Airport in Rio de Janeiro

The Santos Dumont Airport serves the city of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil and as a place for watching aircraft taking off and landing backed by stunning scenery, it’s pretty hard to beat.

With this Santos Dumont Airport webcam you won’t have long to wait before you see a plane sweep in over the eight mile long Rio-Niterói Bridge – the second longest bridge in South America, and touchdown on a runway that ends right on the water’s edge of Guanabara Bay. It’s a spectacular event but not the end of the show. Stay with the cam as it pans around, and you’ll also get a glimpse of Rio’s famous Sugarloaf Mountain. Airport live feeds really don’t get better than this one.
