Our Recommendation
9.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides a front-row seat to the dramatic volcanic chain of the Leeward Islands, featuring the smoking Soufrière Hills of Montserrat and the majestic Nevis Peak.

Left Side Highlights
9.5
🌋

Montserrat Volcano

Unrivaled views of the Soufrière Hills volcano and the exclusion zone on the southern part of the island.

🪨

Redonda

The steep, uninhabited volcanic rock of Redonda rises sharply from the Caribbean Sea.

⛰️

Nevis Peak

A stunning close-up of the 3,232-foot volcanic cone that dominates the landscape of Nevis.

🌊

The Narrows

The beautiful turquoise channel separating the sister islands of Saint Kitts and Nevis.

🏘️

Basseterre Harbor

Aerial view of the capital city and the Port Zante cruise terminal upon final approach.

Sit on the left for a direct line of sight to Montserrat. Choose a morning flight for the best lighting on the volcanoes, as the afternoon sun can create haze and glare from this side.

Right Side Highlights
6.8
🏖️

Antigua North Coast

Clear views of Dickenson Bay and the blue lagoons of northern Antigua immediately after takeoff.

🌅

Caribbean Horizon

Expansive views of the open Caribbean Sea stretching toward the northern Leeward Islands.

⛰️

Mount Liamuiga

View the lush, forested slopes of St. Kitts' highest peak as the plane descends into SKB.

⛳

Frigate Bay

The narrow isthmus of St. Kitts where the Atlantic Ocean nearly meets the Caribbean Sea.

The right side is best for seeing the northern coastline of St. Kitts during landing. Afternoon flights are better here to avoid the direct tropical sun while viewing the islands.
