St. Martin
Aerial views of the lagoons and rugged hillsides of both the French and Dutch sides.
Mount Scenery
The distant but distinct volcanic silhouette of Saba rising sharply from the Caribbean Sea.
The Baths
Spot the famous giant granite boulders and hidden coves on the southern tip of Virgin Gorda.
Road Harbour
A bird's-eye view of the sailing capital of the Caribbean and the bustling port of Tortola.
St. John National Park
Dense tropical forests and the iconic turquoise waters of Trunk Bay and Cinnamon Bay.
This side is superior for viewing the main chain of the Virgin Islands. Morning flights are ideal to avoid the glare of the southern sun. Keep your camera ready as soon as you cross the Anegada Passage, as the islands appear in quick succession.

Prickly Pear Cays

Anegada
The low-lying coral island visible on the northern horizon, contrasting with the mountainous islands.
Jost Van Dyke
Look for the white sands of Great Harbour and White Bay, famous for their beach bars.
Magens Bay
A stunning view of St. Thomas's most famous heart-shaped beach during the final approach.
Charlotte Amalie
Views of the historic Danish architecture and the cruise ship terminal as you descend into STT.
The right side is best for seeing the more remote northern cays and provides a fantastic perspective of Magens Bay during the descent into St. Thomas if the flight path approaches from the north. Afternoon flights offer better lighting for the Atlantic side of the islands.
