Long Island Shoreline
Clear views of the Hamptons and the southern coast of Long Island shortly after reaching cruising altitude.
Outer Banks
A spectacular view of the narrow, arcing barrier islands of North Carolina, including the iconic Cape Hatteras.
Grand Bahama
Aerial views of Freeport and the sprawling sandbars surrounding the northernmost major Bahamian island.
Berry Islands
Look for the Great Stirrup Cay and the stunning circular patterns of the surrounding shallow carbonate banks.
New Providence Island
Direct views of Cable Beach and the luxury resorts of Nassau during the final approach into the airport.
Choose the right side for spectacular sunset views on afternoon flights. The descent into NAS from the north often provides the best angle for iconic turquoise water photographs. Use a polarizing filter if possible to cut through ocean glare for better photos.

Cape Cod & Islands
Excellent early views of Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket as the aircraft tracks south-southeast from Boston.
Deep Atlantic Blue
Vast stretches of the open Atlantic Ocean, providing a serene backdrop and great views of massive cargo ship wakes.
Abaco Islands
The first glimpse of Bahamian territory featuring scattered cays and vibrant coral reefs visible through the clear water.
Rose Island
Panoramic views of the long, thin island just east of Nassau during the final descent and banking maneuvers.
Sit on the left for early sunrise views on morning flights and better views of the smaller out-islands like the Abacos. Keep your camera ready about 30 minutes before landing for the dramatic transition from deep navy blue to bright turquoise water.
