Wadden Sea
A unique UNESCO World Heritage site consisting of vast tidal flats and wetlands along the Dutch and German coast.
East Frisian Islands
A chain of sandy islands including Norderney and Borkum visible stretching along the northern German shore.
Kiel Canal Area
The western entrance to one of the world's busiest artificial waterways connecting the North and Baltic Seas.
Mecklenburg Coast
The white chalk cliffs of Rügen or the sandy beaches of the German Baltic coast often appear on clear days.
Hel Peninsula
The iconic, narrow 35km-long sandbar separating the Bay of Puck from the Baltic Sea, visible during the final descent.
For the most dramatic coastal scenery, choose a window seat in the front half of the cabin. Morning flights provide excellent lighting for the North Sea, while summer evenings offer a beautiful sunset glow over the water. Watch closely for the Hel Peninsula during the last 15 minutes of the flight.
