Frequent visitor to Siesta Key from Ireland. As a family we have a lot of shared memories here and so it is a special place for us and we are glad to see it didn't sustain the damage it had first anticipated. We have our vacation planned for next summer and we fully intend to be there. I know 10 months from now will be completely different but having said that, we will still bring our tourism there like we have done so many times before and create even more memories but most importantly, bring our custom to as much local vendors and businesses as we possibly can. Wishing everyone our very best and we hope you all get back on your feet as safely and as quickly as possible and we look forward to our visit in July 25.

Beautiful choice of music to accompany the excellent drone work.

Hopefully Siesta Key can recover and thrive again. I have been vacationing there 46 years since I was 2 years old. It was always nice to get down there and escape the cold weather in both Indianapolis and Chicago over the years.

Fellow drone pilot here. Great work on the capture. I was born and raised in Sarasota and already had a trip booked to Sarasota for the first week in November on Lido Key before Helene and Milton. I was looking forward to capturing all of the beautiful places in Sarasota with my drone. Now it looks like I might also be filming some of the devastation. It's very sad to see, but I know the residents of Sarasota will get back on their feet and rebuild.

Everytime these events occur it becomes more difficult for people to recover. Good Luck Sieta Key we will see what happens next. I live near the Gulf Coast Texas & know this hardship.

I’ve had the awesome experience of vacationing Florida three years in a row… Absolutely love it down there..Still do..This is absolutely devastating on so many levels… The insurance companies and fema idk

[RNC--]

Yeah. Where is the destroyed building.?

[johneubank]

Thanks for the great aerial video of siesta key. The devastation is unbelievable. A friend of mine has a property in siesta key on Commonwealth Avenue. Let me know if you have any footage of that particular street.

I have been to this island many times to work on homes. It’s crazy to see all the houses I’ve worked in complete destroyed. At the same time, I see how much we’ve built on these islands. Mother Nature is trying to peel the scale that has been built up on her back.

I use to go to siesta key every winter with family. This hurts to see

[nychris]

They built mansions on a sandbar... what do they expect?

2:38 Shows what is left of Paul Rudolph’s Sanderling Beach Club Cabanas. RIP to another historic MCM landmark. 😞

[Smoknn]

it's so hard to let go, do I stay and rebuild or do I leave the only place I ever loved. I lived my whole life here. this was paradise, so beautiful. and if I rebuild will my neighbor? or will I be living next to an abandoned house? I can't give up but it's so overwhelming.

[davidjaap]

Question from a midwesterner...if there is only rocks on the shore, does this also mean there is no more sand underwater? 😢

[GlobalCatastropheTV]

That must have been a dramatic sight! Hurricanes can cause such extensive damage, and using drones to capture the aftermath provides a unique perspective. It’s both fascinating and heartbreaking to see the impact on communities. How do you think technology like drones can help in disaster response and recovery?

3:21 my family’s condo, at the anchorage. That’s the pool& tennis courts. 😢 It’s been in my family since the 70’s. My fiancé & I were supposed to be getting there October 4th and staying until the 12th, fortunately we decided to stay here in Ohio but I’m so sad to see it in disarray. 😢

Actually doesn't look as bad as I expected - compared to damage from Ian in Ft. Myers Beach, or Helene/Idalia in Cedar Key (other than that picture of the collapsed condo that isn't in the video and possibly from Ian)

[Adam.NavyVet]

They are called barrier islands for a reason. Building on them was never supposed to happen or be allowed. Insanity would be to build everything back instead of letting the island return to nature and beach beauty without homes and buildings. I was born here and I remember when this area was a nature reserve.

Go south down 41 then take 776 to Englewood if you want to talk about a place being destroyed.
