Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the Vietnamese coastline and the dramatic approach into Da Nang, featuring the Marble Mountains and the Son Tra Peninsula.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏜️

Red Soil Plateau

A unique look at the fertile basaltic soil regions of Dak Lak and Gia Lai, characterized by a distinct deep red hue from above.

🌊

Central Coastline

As the plane nears the coast, enjoy sweeping views of the South China Sea stretching toward the horizon.

🏔️

Marble Mountains

The five limestone and marble outcrops rising abruptly from the coastal plains near the sands of My Khe.

🐒

Son Tra Peninsula

Known as Monkey Mountain, this lush green headland marks the northern edge of Da Nang's main bay.

🏙️

Da Nang Cityscape

A full view of the Han River bridges, including the famous Dragon Bridge, and the high-rise development along the beach.

The right side is essential for the iconic coastal approach. For the best photography, book a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the turquoise waters and white sand beaches as you descend into Da Nang International Airport.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
☕

Buon Ma Thuot Coffee Highlands

Aerial views of the vast coffee and rubber plantations surrounding the city of Buon Ma Thuot immediately after takeoff.

⛰️

Truong Son Mountain Range

Rugged peaks and deep valleys of the Central Highlands, often shrouded in morning mist or dramatic cloud formations.

🌲

Ngoc Linh Nature Reserve

Dense primary forests and steep terrain of one of Vietnam's most biodiverse mountainous regions.

🚠

Ba Na Hills

On the final approach, you may spot the cable car lines and the French Village theme park nestled in the mountains west of Da Nang.

Choose the left side for sunset flights to watch the sun dip behind the Annamite Range. It is also better for observing the dense, inland jungle canopy and the winding rivers that cut through the highland valleys.
