Clear Kayak Photoshoot in Nassau: Floating Dress Photos

Paddle in a flowing dress while a drone captures you from above

A clear kayak photoshoot at Saunders Beach combines paddling in transparent kayaks with professional drone photography and a provided long-trailed dress. You paddle in your choice of bathing suit or outfit, then change into the dress for photos while a guide in the water helps position you and arrange the fabric. The company has operated since 2021 as Nassau's first clear kayak drone photography service, using Saunders Beach's quieter setting to capture aerial shots.

The experience

You start in your own clothes, paddling a clear kayak through shallow water at Saunders Beach so the drone can film you from above. Once you're comfortable in the water, you change into the long-trailed dress the company provides, and a guide stays in the water with you to help with the fit and pose the fabric for the camera. The dress floats and moves in the water, creating the visual effect the photoshoot is built around: the kind of image that reads as editorial rather than vacation snapshot.

Saunders Beach sits minutes from downtown Nassau but stays quieter than the main tourist beaches, which is why the operator chose it for these shots. The water clarity matters here: the clear kayak hull lets the drone capture both you and the seabed beneath, and the shallow depth keeps the whole scene in frame. A live English-speaking guide manages the session, timing and directing the photography so the dress catches light and movement the way it should.

The experience runs about 75 minutes from start to finish. You'll have the aerial photos afterward: the operator describes them as magazine quality, the kind of image people actually frame or use. Bring a bathing suit or outfit you're comfortable paddling in first. The dress is provided and fitted for you.

What’s included

Top questions

What happens if it rains?

It may be canceled due to bad weather. If that happens, you're offered another date or a refund. Free cancellation up to 24 h before the start.

What exactly is a clear kayak and how does it work for photography?

A clear kayak has a transparent hull so the drone can film through the bottom of the boat into the water below. You paddle and balance the same way as a regular kayak, but the transparency lets the camera capture both you and the seabed, creating depth in the aerial shot that a regular kayak cannot offer.

Do I have to wear the dress, or can I just paddle and get photos in my own clothes?

You can paddle and be photographed in your bathing suit or outfit of choice for part of the session. The dress is optional for the photos, but it's provided and included, and most people use it because it's designed to float and move in the water in a way that creates the visual effect the photoshoot is known for.

Will I actually get the drone photos, or just see them happen?

Yes, you receive the aerial photos afterward. The operator describes them as magazine quality and notes they are the main takeaway from the session. The images you'll keep and share from your time in Nassau.

Is Saunders Beach easy to reach, and where do I meet the guide?

Saunders Beach is minutes from downtown Nassau. Public transportation options are available nearby, and the location is wheelchair accessible. You'll meet the guide at the beach. Confirm the exact meeting point and any parking details when you book.
