Canary Islands Chain

Mount Teide

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the harshest sun glare. This side is prime for spotting other Canary Islands like Gran Canaria before landing. During the winter, look for the snow-capped peak of Teide, which provides a stunning contrast to the blue Atlantic.
