Curacao: Clear Kayak Photoshoot & Drone Videos, Cocktails

Summary

Curacao clear kayak drone shoot with cocktails and local fruit

You’ll float above Curacao’s blue water in a clear kayak while a local guide snaps drone photos and videos (plus free cocktails and tropical fruit). Expect laughter, salty air, and relaxed moments that end up as real memories — not just pictures on your phone.

What’s the experience like?

It’s a weird feeling, sitting in a see-through kayak with the sun flickering through turquoise water under you — like you’re floating on nothing, or maybe just hovering above the sea. Our guide, Jairo, grinned as he handed me a cold cocktail (the first one was bright pink — no idea what was in it but it tasted like vacation). He kept making jokes about how “dushi” means sweet in Papiamentu. I tried to say it back and everyone laughed — I’m still not sure if I got it right.

The whole thing felt more relaxed than I’d expected. No stiff poses or awkward instructions. Jairo had this little drone buzzing overhead while we drifted along the bay near Willemstad, and at one point I forgot about the camera completely because there was this salty breeze and the smell of cut pineapple from the fruit plate they’d brought out. It’s funny — I thought I’d feel self-conscious but honestly? The water made everything look kind of magical. The main keyword here is “clear kayak photoshoot Curacao,” but really it’s about that feeling of being weightless for an hour or so.

I got rum on my hand trying to balance a shot glass while Jairo called out “look up!” for the drone video part. My friend almost tipped us over laughing (don’t try to do dramatic poses unless you’re better at balancing than we are). Afterward, we just sat there eating mango slices, watching our pictures get sent straight to our phones by the next day. It wasn’t perfect — my hair went wild in the wind — but now every time I see those photos, I remember how light everything felt out there. If you’re looking for a day trip in Curacao that’s more about memories than perfection, this is probably it.
