Rugged, forested mountains meeting the emerald waters of the coast, creating a series of hidden coves.
Annaba Coastline

Sidi Bou Said

Djurdjura Range
The jagged, snow-capped peaks of the Tell Atlas mountains dominating the southern horizon.
Constantine Gorges
Depending on the flight path, you may see the deep canyons and historic hanging bridges of the 'City of Bridges'.
Medjerda Valley
The fertile agricultural basin of Tunisia, showing a patchwork of green fields near the border.

The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights, as the setting sun casts long, dramatic shadows over the Atlas Mountains. It offers a more rugged, terrestrial view of North Africa's interior compared to the maritime left side.
