Balmedie Beach
The long, sandy coastline north of Aberdeen is clearly visible immediately after departure from Dyce.
North Sea Energy Assets
Spot various offshore oil and gas platforms and support vessels dotting the North Sea during the crossing.
Boknafjorden
One of Norway's largest fjord systems, providing a stunning contrast of deep blue water and rocky shorelines.
Kvitsøy Archipelago
A cluster of picturesque islands and rocky outcrops that mark the maritime gateway to Stavanger.
Karmøy Island
The southern tip of this historic island features the charming town of Skudeneshavn near the flight path.
The left side is generally better for photography as it faces north, avoiding direct sun glare for most of the flight. For the best views of the Norwegian archipelago, try to book a morning flight when the low sun angle highlights the relief of the rocky islands.

Polarized sunglasses are highly recommended.
