The beaches of Shamei Island are very long. Along the north-south direction of the beach, many villas and hotels have their own private beaches. At night, you can sit on the beach, eat delicious food, drink wine, and watch fire performances.
[About flying drones]Traveling to 40 countries, flying drones on the beach of the Malibu hotel where I stay, no one cares, but it's better to bring a take-off pad or plastic sheet and set up a take-off area on the treeless beach, and be careful not to crash the drone into the water. A few days ago, I met a man landing on Langkawi Island in Malaysia and he crashed his drone into the sea when he hit a tree on the beach. His wife kept scolding him.
In addition, I participated in a half-day tour of 5 islands and diving yesterday. I flew a drone on one of the small islands, but after a few minutes in the air, a person in camouflage came over and said I couldn't fly it. However, the Thai staff were very polite and just asked me to land the drone as soon as possible. So, when flying drones abroad, besides checking the no-fly zone warning on the DJI remote controller, you also need to observe whether there are any regulatory personnel around and try to fly in compliance with regulations to avoid trouble.
