Got some nice footage in Fuerteventura a few weeks back. ISeems Tenerife has always been a pain. 'm off to Benalmadena in a couple of weeks. Not sure what it’s like around there to fly a drone. ---

I was in Tenerife the other week ( didn’t take the drone) Reading the rules on the Enaire Drone app, you have to notify the Ministry of the Interior a minimum of 5 days before the flight ( in many areas of Tenerife) ---

I have recently returned from Tenerife and was considering bringing my drone. However, after reviewing the current laws and regulations in the area—particularly the extensive no-fly zones—I opted not to bring it. Although I possess an EU A2 certification, it is essential to conduct thorough research prior to using a drone in any country. Ignorance of the law is not a valid excuse.
