Travel restrictions in the age of COVID have us exploring corners close to home—perhaps even for the first time. In that respect, few angles give you a new or improved perspective of your home state (and even your own backyard) quite like a drone. On an empty beach? There’s no better way to see just how wonderfully alone you are than launching a camera 100 feet into the air. Struggling to fit the group into a single selfie while complying with social distancing rules? These days, drones will do it for you with a press of a button.

There was a time, not long ago, when carrying a drone meant lugging around a large, heavy, hard case, but manufacturers are now able to fit more power in smaller packages, so you can just as easily bring it to the park as your next weekend camping trip. From high-powered robots to waterproof gadgets made for adventurers, here are the best drones for every type of traveler, including a few recommendations from the pros.
