Drone photography & video in Blanes
Somia Digital provides drone photography and video in Blanes with the coastal calendar in mind: in summer the beaches and promenade fill up and any flight is over people; in winter the light is lower and permits come through with less rush. We work with certified pilots and more than 10 years of experience so campsites, hotels and estate agents have aerial footage ready before the season starts.
Blanes · Selva
Blanes is the gateway to the Costa Brava: beaches, the Marimurtra botanical garden and a retail scene that multiplies every summer. Blanes businesses need a website that works hard in high season and keeps winning customers the rest of the year.
Local context
High season, packed beach: what changes for the drone?
Royal Decree 517/2024 treats town centres and publicly accessible recreational areas alike, and a beach in summer is the perfect example. Flying there, or over any gathering of people, comes with far stricter requirements and isn't always worth it. In practice we look for sand-and-sea shots early in the morning or out of season, when the promenade is empty and the picture is cleaner too.
Botanical gardens and private estates follow a simpler rule: on top of aviation law, you need the go-ahead from whoever runs the grounds. And before setting a date we check the spot on the official ENAIRE Drones map to rule out temporary restrictions.
What it needs
Three briefs that make sense in a tourist gateway town
Campsites and holiday parks
An overhead shot shows the real distance to the sand, the pool and the pine shade, which is what guests compare before booking.
Homes inland
Countryside homes sell on their setting: the drone shows the whole plot and how the track reaches it.
Year-round retail
For a shop or restaurant a few aerial seconds are enough to place it; the rest of the video is filmed on the ground.
Work done nearby
We've already flown in the area
In Maçanet de la Selva we filmed the Can Cuca advert, a house surrounded by nature, for an estate agent, using drone shots to explain the property.
