I travelled by plane, land and 29KM of sea to get to an island beach last Dec 2017 with my Spark. Take good care not to get any sand into the camera and gimbal motors area. I had several Gimbal Overload during my short stay at the beach and I only had 2 batteries with me for that day and I had to deal with Gimbal Motors Overload issues. I'm pretty sure it was sand getting inside.
