Bee8 is a community project that installs, supports, and connects urban beehives across Dublin 8 and the wider city. This site helps the community connect with local bee populations and follow the work of Bee8 through beekeeper updates, livestreams, live sensor data, historical data downloads, and local weather conditions.

Educators can also find resources to help teach the next generation about bees, beekeeping, and their importance to biodiversity.
