When beach camping goes WRONG

Our beach camping adventure on South Padre Island just got worse. With a storm coming, the tide rising, and high winds, we chose to stay on the beach to battle it out. In hindsight, we shouldn’t have.

Yikes! That was a nightmare. Happy you did well and got out of there. Stay Safe.

Thanks, yeah there were some tense moments for sure. The thing that really caught me (Jay) off guard was how the water kept rising even after high tide passed and it was supposed to be receding. "Storm surge" can be pretty intense, and come with any windstorm, not just hurricanes.

Thankfully you both got through it and collectively gained more understanding so you can make safe decisions at the next beach. Another scary thing watching the episode was that the loose sand might have prevented a speedy exit. @@HomeARoam

😮. What an ordeal! It’s impressive how you deal with the unexpected and communicate with each other so collaboratively and without rancor. Kudos to you. Safe travels

We camped there 6 years ago and really enjoyed it. High tide came up to the tires on the travel trailer but no issues. We'll probably go there again but after watching your video we will more careful.

Yeah it was great until the wind picked up and the tides got bigger. A few of the other die hards sunk into the sand a bit with the water going past their rig, but as far as we know they were still able to get out. Safe travels!

I’ll keep enjoying the great drone footage and leave the stressful situations for you to deal with - great teamwork!

Definitely enjoying y’all’s channel. I’m absolutely intrigued about learning about beach camping in Texas as I’m in Louisiana and it’s really close for me but I never imagined I’d be learning about it from Canadians😂. Loving the episodes with failures and good times and everything in between. Safe and happy travels to y’all.

Not sure why you’d risk losing your truck and trailer to Mother Nature.

@HomeARoam 4 ай бұрын

Yeah, it was a calculated risk. I mean, really we risk the truck and trailer every time we hitch it up and drive somewhere. 🤷‍♂️ If you thought that was risky you should watch our Baja series. 😁 But in all seriousness, it was a scary lesson and we're definitely going to remember and respect what high tide plus a wind storm can do to a beach.

All we thought of at the beginning was… “ when the rats leave the ship(beach), you better too…” 😁

Good thing you guys made it out of there no problems, My rule is where ever there is flat sandy beach , the ocean can reach , A no Camp zone for me. Anyhow stressful time im sure.

@HomeARoam 4 ай бұрын

We will have to add that motto to our tips for beach camping! Love it!

@carolnavan4137 4 ай бұрын

Was it worth the stress? 😂

@HomeARoam 4 ай бұрын

Can't say we would recommend it. When the weather is nice, camping on the beach is amazing. During a storm is a whole other game that we don't really want to repeat.

I live in the Rio Grande Valley and honestly the beach here is horrible with WIND. You’ll have salty sand in your vehicle and RV for the rest of their lives LOL. No No for me LOL.

Great video. What wireless mic's do you all use?

@HomeARoam 4 ай бұрын

Thanks! We have DJI wireless mics, but mostly just used the GoPro internal mic on this one. I cleaned up the audio substantially using Davinci Resolve's AI "voice isolation" feature. Works pretty well.
