Our Recommendation
7.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a dramatic reveal of the Atlantic coastline and the intricate marshlands of the Lowcountry as the plane descends into Myrtle Beach.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🏙️

Atlanta Skyline

Excellent views of the Downtown and Midtown skyscrapers immediately following an eastbound departure from Hartsfield-Jackson.

⛳

Augusta National

Keep an eye out for the world-famous green fairways of the Masters golf course as you cross the Savannah River.

🌊

Lake Marion

South Carolina's largest lake, easily identified by its distinctive shape and surrounding wetlands near Santee.

🏖️

The Grand Strand

Stunning views of the 60-mile stretch of white sandy beaches as the plane turns for its final approach into MYR.

The right side is prime for coastal views. As you approach MYR, look for the distinct line where the Waccamaw River meets the Atlantic. Morning flights will face the sun, so window shades may be needed until the final descent into the coastal region.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
⛰️

Stone Mountain

Look out shortly after takeoff to see the world's largest exposed granite monadnock rising from the Georgia woods.

🌲

Sumter National Forest

Expansive views of the rolling hills and dense pine forests of the South Carolina Piedmont region.

💧

Lake Murray

A massive 50,000-acre reservoir near Columbia, often sparkling under the afternoon sun.

🏎️

Darlington Raceway

The historic 'Too Tough to Tame' NASCAR track is occasionally visible near the South Carolina coast during descent.

Sit on the left for a potential glimpse of the Appalachian foothills in the distance and Stone Mountain shortly after takeoff from ATL. In the afternoon, this side is shaded from the harsh southern sun, making photography easier.
