Montego Bay: Clear Kayak Drone Photoshoot & Floating Letters

Summary

Montego Bay clear kayak photoshoot with drone aerials and floating flowers

You’ll float in a clear kayak over Montego Bay’s bright waters while a local photographer guides you through poses—or lets you just be yourself—for unique drone shots with floating Jamaica letters or flowers. Includes private pickup, pro-edited photos and video sent later, plus bubbly if you’re celebrating. It’s relaxed, sometimes goofy, always memorable.

What’s the experience like?

I almost bailed when my hair started frizzing from the salt air—seriously, Montego Bay humidity is no joke. But our driver just grinned and said, “It’s the island glow.” He was right. By the time we reached the beach for this clear kayak drone photoshoot, I’d stopped worrying about looking perfect. The water was that wild kind of blue-green you only see in postcards, but it actually felt cool on my feet wading out to the kayak—just knee-deep, which surprised me. The photographer (I think her name was Tia?) handed me a flower crown and pointed at these giant floating “JAMAICA” letters bobbing nearby. I tried to pronounce it with her accent; she laughed and told me to just smile instead.

The drone buzzing overhead was louder than I expected—sort of like a big mosquito—but after a few minutes I forgot it was there. Tia kept giving gentle directions (“Turn your chin! Relax your shoulders!”) but mostly let me do my awkward wave thing. At one point she tossed a handful of petals onto the water around the kayak and suddenly everything smelled faintly sweet, like hibiscus tea. It sounds silly but I felt oddly peaceful just drifting for those few minutes, sunlight flickering through the clear bottom of the boat. My friend tried to stand up for her shot (don’t do that), and nearly tipped us both over—cue more laughter from everyone watching.

We wrapped up after maybe half an hour? Hard to say—I lost track counting how many times Tia said “One more for luck.” She promised we’d get twelve edited photos plus a short video by email in a couple days (we did). If you’re celebrating something special, they’ll even sneak you a bottle of pink Moscato—just tell them ahead. Honestly, I still think about that feeling: warm breeze, salt on my lips, and seeing myself from above in that crazy blue water. Not what I expected from a day trip in Montego Bay—and I mean that in the best way.
