What you need to know

Drone filming
in the Balearic Islands.

The islands combine coves, cliffs, mountains and Mediterranean architecture, and host commercial, fashion and drama shoots all year round. The logistics — ferry, gear and batteries — are agreed with the production before dates are confirmed.

Travel

We come over by ferry with the gear from the mainland; for short shoots we agree with the production the most efficient option for gear and batteries.

flight

Airspace

Palma, Menorca and Ibiza airports: their surroundings are controlled airspace and require ENAIRE coordination; in high season air traffic is heavy.

park

Protected areas

Cabrera National Park, the Serra de Tramuntana, Ses Salines of Ibiza and Formentera and the Menorca natural parks: environmental authorisation on top of the aviation one.

landscape

Locations

Sa Calobra, Formentor and the Serra de Tramuntana in Mallorca, the coves of Menorca, Es Vedrà and the Ibiza cliffs, and the beaches of Formentera.

How we work

From the script
to the clapperboard.

We join your production in the Balearic Islands as its aerial unit, with pilot, camera operator and DIT, and the permits sorted before the first shoot day.

01

Reading the shot list

We mark the aerial shots, suggest the platform for each one (Inspire 3, FPV or Mavic 3 Cine) and estimate the shoot days.

02

Recce and permits

Location, light by the hour and flight paths. We handle AESA, ENAIRE coordination where airspace is controlled, and municipal or environmental authorisations.

03

Shoot day

Pilot, camera operator and DIT on set, with radios to the director and the aerial feed on the director's monitor.

04

Footage delivery

8K ProRes RAW from the Inspire 3 or 6K R3D from the FPV, with LUTs and copies verified before leaving set.

FAQ

Questions about
shooting in the Balearic Islands.

How do you get the gear to the islands?add

Usually by ferry, with the aircraft and batteries in their transport cases. It is planned with a few days' margin before the first shoot day.

Can you fly a drone in the Serra de Tramuntana?add

Yes, with environmental authorisation on top of the aviation paperwork and within the conditions of each area. The range is very large, so it is worked out location by location.

How much does a drone operator cost for a shoot in Mallorca?add

An aerial unit day plus ferry, accommodation and permits; with several consecutive days the travel weighs less. We send the 2026 rate card with the quote.

Can you film yachts and coastline from the water?add

Yes, coordinated with the boat and with take-off as the flight plan and permits allow.
