Saba
The dramatic, cloud-shrouded peak of Mount Scenery rising 2,910 feet directly from the Caribbean Sea.
The Quill
The perfectly formed volcanic crater of Sint Eustatius, displaying a lush rainforest inside its rim.
St. Kitts and Nevis
Twin volcanic peaks of Mount Liamuiga and Nevis Peak, often connected by a single ridge line from the air.
Soufrière Hills
The active volcano of Montserrat, where you can see the ash-filled valleys and the ruins of the former capital, Plymouth.
Dickenson Bay
Antigua's famous white sand beaches and turquoise shoals during the final descent into V.C. Bird Airport.
The right side is the 'volcano side.' Keep your camera ready mid-flight for the Montserrat fly-by; it is one of the most hauntingly beautiful sights in the Caribbean. Late afternoon flights provide stunning golden-hour lighting on the western slopes of the islands.
