Drone video: the secret weapon of real estate and tourism

An aerial image completely changes how we perceive a place. Showing a property with its surroundings, a cove from the sky or a hotel's facilities from above creates an impact no street-level photo achieves.

Why it works so well

The drone adds context: you see the location, proximity to the sea, the real size of an estate or a business's surroundings. On the Costa Brava, where the landscape is a selling point, that perspective is gold.

Sectors that benefit most

• Real estate: show the property and its surroundings in one shot
• Hotels and campsites: showcase facilities, pools and views
• Tourism and hospitality: sell the experience and the place
• Construction and projects: document progress from above

The regulations, in two minutes

In Spain and the EU, flying a drone commercially requires an AESA-registered operator, a certified pilot, liability insurance and respecting flight zones and altitudes (with specific permits near urban areas, protected spaces or airports). The good news for you: all of that is our problem. When you book our drone photography and video, permit management and zone checks are included — you provide the location, we handle the red tape. Flying "with a friend's drone" without these requirements can cost dearly in fines.

Flying a drone commercially requires certified pilots and proper permits —we take care of that. At Somia Digital we shoot 4K aerial photo and video across the province of Girona, combining aerial and ground shots to tell a complete story. Shall we give your project some height?
