Hey ! Are Y'all going to be in Orange Beach for the Shrimp Fest ? That would be cool if you were there ! We finally found a Private fishing charter, and have open spots, if you all are interested. Let me know !
OWA if I'm not mistaken has added some really good restraunts in addition to Lucy's. It also has some other shops and cool things to do. Hope you enjoy it down there!!
@@jlamarBJJ Thank you ! There will be 8 of us ( all Family ), and look forward to any info you can help with! OR, if your friends want to do a charter, that would be cool also ! It's just to far for me to drag a boat, and I think the airlines wouldn't let me check a boat ! Ha Ha! 😁😉
Lol. We generally try to go visit our friends there a few times a year. OCTOBER is an absolute perfect month to go!!! Feel free to hit us up on Instagram at @thewanderinglocals when you go and we'd be more than happy to try to help
@@jlamarBJJ Thanks very much! We are coming in on October 7th for the shrimp festival ! I don't have instagram, but I will try to have my son or daughter contact you. Y'all are awesome !
We used a few different ones. Most of the land based shots were a Canon mark ii. The underwater were a mix of dji osmo, and various go pros. And the air shots were dji Mini Maverick
We felt very safe on the island tbh. I also train BJJ and met some locals and ventured out with them while there. I think you will find the locals very helpful and friendly!! We stayed at the Hilton but also found way cheaper options on Air bnb
Have you dived around bridge span 12? I believe They took spans from the old road way in the area and sunk them as artificial reefs, I heard that it was on its side now , when I dived it a few years ago it was upright, I believe that it was knocked over by a cat 5 hurricane in that area a couple of years ago or so.
@@martyhiers1635 yes we covered that later in this video I think. Big shark that hovers just outside of it. I never saw the famed octopus but I hope I do on the return trip
I think you got the best computer head up, based on what I'm reading, too. I've got mine on the way. I didn't realize you were local to the Bham area until I saw we have the same hat (different color). Roll Tide!!
Lol. Hopefully the next time i do a video like this one i know what im doing. That said we dive blue water park frequently. If you're ever by there hit us up! Same name on Instagram
My wife and I stayed at the Hilton Gardens the last time we went to Orange Beach/Gulf Shores. It was being renovated but it wasn't too bad. We didn't have to wait on our room but we also stopped to eat lunch first and we weren't exactly on time for checking in either. We enjoyed our stay. Good video!
It is OWA. It is an actual Creek word that means big water. It isn't O W A like people say OBA. McGuire's is in Pensacola, Florida. But overall a good video of the area.
Thank you for the info on OWA. We plan on revisiting this vlog later this year, now that we kinda have an idea what we are doing lol. Appreciate the view!
On a medium or high setting it performs fine. Does reduce battery minimally, however i can run it on high for 3 days straight before putting it on the charger
