Search flights from CAW to MEA
Lagoa Feia
A massive freshwater lagoon that dominates the landscape shortly after takeoff from Campos.
Campos Plains
Vast expanses of sugar cane plantations and cattle ranches typical of the Northern Fluminense region.
Serra do Mar
The blue silhouette of the coastal mountain range rising sharply in the distant west.
Macaé Skyline
A bird's-eye view of the 'Oil Capital' and its rapid urban development against the green hills.
The right side is best during late afternoon to avoid direct glare and see the Serra do Mar silhouetted against the sunset. Keep your camera ready shortly after takeoff to capture the scale of Lagoa Feia, which is best viewed from higher altitudes.
