Jurassic Coast
Iconic geological formations and white cliffs along the Dorset coastline near Bournemouth.
Mont Saint-Michel
The distant but distinct tidal island and abbey off the coast of Normandy during the Channel crossing.
Bordeaux Vineyards
Stunning geometric patterns of some of the world's most prestigious wine estates in southwest France.
Central Pyrenees
Aerial views of Aneto, the highest peak in the Pyrenees range, marking the border into Spain.
Es Vedrà
The mysterious and legendary volcanic rock formation rising from the sea during the final approach into Ibiza.
The right side is essential for the classic Ibiza landing experience. If the plane lands from the south (runway 06), you will pass right by the magnetic rock of Es Vedrà. For afternoon flights, this side remains in the shade, making photography of the French coastline much easier.
