Mount Liamuiga
The massive dormant volcano on St. Kitts is a prominent landmark appearing early in the flight.
Virgin Islands Archipelago
A dense cluster of islands including St. Thomas, Tortola, and Jost Van Dyke visible as green gems in the sea.
El Yunque Rainforest
The misty, high-altitude tropical rainforest of eastern Puerto Rico is visible as the flight parallels the island's north coast.
Old San Juan
On clear days, the historic El Morro fort and the colorful colonial buildings of the Puerto Rican capital can be spotted.
Boca Chica Lagoon
The shallow, neon-blue waters of the Dominican coast appearing just minutes before landing at SDQ.
The right side is superior for scenic island-hopping views. For afternoon flights, this side is shaded and offers better lighting for photography. Look for the distinct 'The Quill' volcano on St. Eustatius, which looks like a perfect crater from above.

Montserrat Volcano
Dramatic views of the Soufrière Hills volcano and its exclusion zone shortly after takeoff from Antigua.
St. Croix
The largest of the U.S. Virgin Islands is visible as a long, green stretch amidst the turquoise Caribbean waters.
Mona Passage
The deep blue waters between Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic, known for its significant maritime depth.
Ponce Coastline
The southern coast of Puerto Rico, featuring drier landscapes and different coastal geography compared to the north.
Early morning flights are ideal for the left side to avoid direct sun glare from the south. This side provides the best view of the active volcano on Montserrat, so have your camera ready within the first 10-15 minutes of the flight.
