Galveston Beach by Drone! - Galveston, Texas

[@albrechtberg8776]

Oh my God, it is so beautiful. Simply paradise and heaven.

[@queenzombs7898]

Everyone says Galveston is dirty but this looks really nice!

[@shortwannabeqb5510]

That’s not the popular part of the beach

[@sleepwalker0335]

You are correct. City of Galveston never spent any time or money on it's beaches or town. The city needs to comb the beaches and keep it clean. I'm going up there may 4th to shoot some drone footage. will post when I get back.

[@Skyliosis]

Queen Zombie yeah the water is really brown when your up close to it, but it’s still nice

[@BRYCE-kj3uw]

Queen Zombie it’s really beautiful I just left there 😭😍

I’m going to Galveston in two weeks and this makes me excited

[@xx_vlinxks_xx818]

Yeah I'm going to Galveston in like maybe 3 or 2 days I'm very excited

[@HeyLookAtTheMoon]

Nice tribute to my favorite beach town. Good work !!

[@delstanley1349]

Great job. I've never seen Galveston seawall from this perspective. You also did it in a non intrusive way.The sound also enhanced that soothing laid-back chill effect. I kind of wish you had pointed out to sea a little too. Those "ghost ships" offshore have an eerie hypnotic effect when I look out there from the sea wall or from a hotel there, but I'm probably the only one who ever notices so it's no big deal anyway. Thanx.

[@ChrisTingom]

Yeah, the main reason I didn't go out to sea was I was afraid of all of the birds. I saw so many and figured I would hit one eventually (didn't hit any). Also, it was WINDY! But man does the drone ever handle the wind well.

[@delstanley1349]

@@ChrisTingom > Okay. Sorry, I didn't actually mean to fly it out there I just meant pointing the camera in that direction from the shore like you did moving along the seawall. I wouldn't have gone too far either over open sea and wind. It wouldn't have occurred to me to even attempt it. Enjoyed the video.

[@ChrisTingom]

@@delstanley1349 Oh yeah, that makes sense. Next time I'm out there, I'm going to still try flying out to sea a bit. Supposedly the drone has a 3 mile range. In this video I think I got about a mile and a half.

[@baconbandit6731]

I love Galveston.

[@ChrisTingom]

And I love bacon!

[@meredithphillips6227]

The water looks disgusting there

[@baconbandit6731]

@@meredithphillips6227 I love Galveston, but yes, the water is disgusting. I've snorkeled Haiti, Puerto Rico, Bahamas, etc. They make Galveston water look like sewage.

[@HeyLookAtTheMoon]

Meredith Phillips it’s an acquired taste

[@sleepwalker0335]

Awesome Videos. Thanks for sharing. I am about to go there in a week and looking forward to flying my mavic air.

[@Mikayla_Games24]

I love Galveston no matter what people say. It's the nearest beach and it's not that bad. They say the water is dirty but that's because of dirt being pushed by the currents. There's beaches out there with literal trash everywhere so I'm not complaining. I think Galveston is beautiful

[@vincem4756]

It's beautiful

[@voidcs5135]

I just went today in the large waves

[@BMacksAerialVisuals]

One of my favorite nearby places in mine regularly for drone footage content. Good stuff. Don't know why this took so long to come across my feed, but it did, so I subbed.

[@banclez8835]

Looks nice!Im driving there for vacation,in fact I’m a hour away

[@ChrisTingom]

enjoy!

[@erikmolnar6585]

When do we see the giant atomic Octopus and the explosions!!! Lol, jk. Nice footage. Look at all those houses!

[@HoustonGamerTVHGTV]

Warm water?

[@ARSOFU]

Looked a lot higher than 400' AGL!

[@chucknance1290]

Great video ! Chris . You were just down the street from our house ; and we loved seeing everything from such a different perspective . We want to get a drone to do some mapping of some farm land . Any recommendations on some entry level drones that might be less expensive than the nice one that you have ? I'm impressed with how stable and clear your video is . Terrific job , Chris ! Thank you so much for making this film 🙂

[@ChrisTingom]

Awesome! Yeah Galveston is great. I hadn't flown my drone there before this trip. I don't really know which drone to get but DJI and Parrot are the two brands that come to mind. Any of the models in the last 4-5 years will be as stable as mine was. I went with DJI because I thought the drone would hold more value so I can re sell it in a few years for a newer model.

[@melissawhite5116]

I remember the beach having way more people growing up in Houston until 1984. Where are all the people?

[@ChrisTingom]

This video was captured in December.

[@sglucatony]

Was this filmed in winter?

[@lauralives985]

Hello Chris! Could I have permission to use some of this footage for a short documentary? I am a doctoral candidate working on a historical pieces about the island.

[@ChrisTingom]

I must say no since I do not have the ability to license this footage in that way.

[@kidlikegaming9228]

Are u able to order jet skies

[@wasappeningvato]

How come nobody's in the water? Is it too cold?

[@ChrisTingom]

Yeah, this was in December.

The small unmanned aircraft does not maintain sustained flight over any person unless that person is participating directly in the operation or located under a covered structure or inside a stationary vehicle that can provide reasonable protection from a falling small unmanned aircraft.

[@quin.mp4]

Hey, May i use some of this footage for my vlog? I will give you full credit (edit: This is also non profit)

[@jcalmar74]

Which drone u was using? Thankx

[@ChrisTingom]

Mavic 2 Zoom

[@queenzombs7898]

Is the water swimmable?

[@ChrisTingom]

Yes, this was December so it was too cold.

[@johndarrouzetiv6732]

Hey Chris! I'm a film student making a documentary on the 1900 Galveston Hurricane. May I have your permission to use clips of this video for B-Roll? Let me know, thanks!

[@marcolocosfilms3391]

Unfortunately I am not able to give permission to use footage.

[@Annamaria-hh7md]

Pensacola beach is better. Daytona beach is better.

[@meredithphillips6227]

The water looks disgusting

[@ChrisTingom]

It's mostly sand in the water that makes it look that way.

[@HeyLookAtTheMoon]

The water current in the Gulf pushes the water from the Mississippi River into Galveston and therefore the water looks darker.
