Nassau: Clear Kayak Photoshoot on Junkanoo Beach with Drone

Summary

Junkanoo Beach clear kayak photo session with drone shots

You’ll float over crystal-clear water in a transparent kayak while local guides capture your best angles with a drone above Junkanoo Beach. Expect gentle coaching for poses (or just be yourself), six pro-edited photos plus a video sent fast, and plenty of laughs along the way. There’s something about seeing yourself from above that just hits different.

What’s the experience like?

The first thing I noticed was the way the water shifted under me — all glassy and blue, like floating on a window. Junkanoo Beach was already buzzing, music somewhere behind us, but once I slid into that clear kayak, it felt quieter, just the hush of waves and my own heartbeat. Our guide, Marcus, grinned and handed me a paddle. “Don’t worry if you wobble,” he said, which made me laugh because I definitely did.

I didn’t expect how weirdly beautiful it’d be to see my own toes through the bottom of the boat, or how the drone sounded — this soft whirring overhead while Marcus directed me to turn “just a little more left!” The sun kept shifting behind clouds, so sometimes everything looked turquoise and sometimes almost silver. He showed me how to pose (I’m not really a model type), but it was actually fun — especially when he cracked up at my attempt to look serious for the camera. The main keyword here is clear kayak photoshoot Nassau, but honestly it just felt like goofing around with friends who happened to have a fancy drone.

Afterwards, we sat on the sand while they scrolled through some raw shots on their phone. Salt still on my skin, hair everywhere from the wind. Marcus promised they'd send six edited photos and a video within two days (I got them in about 36 hours). You can ask for all the raw files too — there were way more than I thought. I keep thinking about that moment when everything went quiet except for that little drone buzz and the water moving underneath. It’s kind of stuck with me.
