Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side provides a breathtaking perspective of the Exuma Sound's turquoise waters, the island's western coastline, and the iconic Hermitage atop Mount Alvernia.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
💎

Exuma Sound

Vibrant shades of turquoise and aquamarine waters that are characteristic of the shallower sound side.

⛪

Mount Alvernia

A prime view of the highest point in the Bahamas, topped by the stone monastery known as The Hermitage.

🪸

Coral Reefs

Visible patch reefs and underwater sand patterns that create a mosaic beneath the surface.

🏘️

Settlement Hop

Aerial views of small settlements like Dumfries and Bennett's Harbour as you track south.

This is the preferred side for photography. For the best lighting on the turquoise water and Mount Alvernia, aim for a flight during the late morning or early afternoon when the sun is high.

Left Side Highlights
6.8
🌊

Atlantic Horizon

Uninterrupted views of the deep cobalt blue Atlantic Ocean stretching toward the horizon.

🏖️

East Coast Beaches

Glimpses of the more rugged, wind-swept eastern beaches known for their pinkish sands.

🌿

Mangrove Creeks

Observation of the dense mangrove systems and internal saline ponds that dot the island's interior.

Choose the left side for morning flights to witness the sunrise over the Atlantic. It offers a great view of the 'wild side' of Cat Island, where the ocean depth increases dramatically just offshore.
