Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers an unparalleled view of the 'Sea of Seven Colors' during takeoff from San Andres and provides a direct view of the McBean Lagoon National Park upon arrival in Providencia.

Right Side Highlights
9.4
💎

Sea of Seven Colors

Breathtaking gradients of turquoise, green, and blue over the extensive reef system.

🏝️

Rocky Cay

A perfect aerial perspective of the famous islet and its surrounding white sandbars.

🚤

McBean Lagoon

The protected waters of the National Park, featuring Crab Cay and intense coral colors.

⛰️

El Pico

The highest volcanic peak of Providencia, covered in lush tropical forest.

The right side is essential for seeing the Great Barrier Reef of the Caribbean. For the most vibrant water colors, book a flight between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM when the sun is at its highest point, minimizing reflections.

Left Side Highlights

🌊

West Coast Cliffs

Dramatic limestone drop-offs on the western edge of San Andres Island.

⛴️

Sunken Vessels

Spot shallow shipwrecks visible through the crystal-clear water near the shore.

🏝️

Santa Catalina Island

A bird's-eye view of the smaller sister island connected by the Lovers Bridge.

Sit on the left for the best views of the rugged Santa Catalina coastline during the final approach. This side is also better during afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun over the Caribbean Sea.
