Pyrenees High Peaks
A majestic view of the snow-capped border between France and Spain, including the massive Pic du Midi de Bigorre.
Carcassonne Citadel
The iconic medieval walled city is often visible as the plane tracks eastward toward the coast.
Golfe du Lion
The sweeping curve of the Mediterranean coastline, from the Perpignan area past the lagoons of Narbonne.
Sète and the Etang de Thau
The 'Venice of Languedoc' and its famous oyster beds appearing as geometric patterns in the water.
Etang de Berre
A stunning bird's-eye view of the large lagoon just before landing at Marseille Provence Airport.
