Chopper over Hollywood Beach


Helicopters are frequently seen flying over Florida beaches...sometimes they are police helicopters, sometimes news station helicopters, and sometimes the helicopters are owned by a private citizen.

This beauty was flying down Hollywood Beach. It has no visible markings which makes me think it is a private chopper. Why would it fly over the beach? Who knows, but there are often some very nice-looking hard bodies lying on the sand.

@ Greg - The city is named Hollywood, and it's between Miami and Fort Lauderdale. Thus, it's beach is Hollywood Beach.

Have sharks been reported lately? Seems they always have footage from helicopters for the news during those times. What a clear blue sky!

@ Lisa - I don't know about the sharks...seems they come at certain times of the year and often get very close to shore...I think, though, that sharks are more often spotted further north...
