Mumbai Skyline
A breathtaking view of Mumbai's skyscrapers and the dense urban sprawl immediately after takeoff.
Sanjay Gandhi National Park
A unique aerial view of the vast green lungs of Mumbai surrounded by intense urbanization.
Tapi and Narmada Estuaries
Visible from high altitude, these two major rivers create massive silty patterns as they enter the Gulf.
Industrial Hubs
Bird's-eye view of the massive industrial complexes near Vapi, Valsad, and the Hazira port area.
Bhavnagar Salt Pans
Distinctive white, geometric patterns of salt evaporation ponds that dominate the landscape during final approach.
The right side is significantly more scenic for land-based features. Aim for a morning flight (7 AM - 10 AM) for the best lighting on the Western Ghats in the distance and the river estuaries. During the monsoon, the right side provides dramatic views of the lush green coastal plains of Gujarat and Maharashtra.

Coastal Sandbars
Intricate shifting sand patterns and small coastal islands visible near the mouth of the Gulf.
Alang Ship Breaking Yard
On clear days during the southern approach to Bhavnagar, the world's largest ship recycling facility is visible along the coast.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. While mostly water, it offers a serene view of the tidal movements in the Gulf. Look out for massive cargo ships anchored in the deep waters of the Arabian Sea.
