Which side of the plane to sit from Mohammed V International Airport (Casablanca) to Tazadit Airport (Zouerat)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular vantage point of the rugged Atlantic coastline where the sapphire ocean meets the golden dunes of the Sahara, providing a dramatic and continuous visual contrast.
Atlantic Seaboard
The striking boundary between the deep blue Atlantic Ocean and the white-capped surf.
Agadir Bay
A clear view of the crescent-shaped beach and the city's busy port area.
Dakhla Peninsula
The long, narrow spit of land creating a turquoise lagoon, a jewel in the Western Sahara desert.
Coastal Dunes
Massive sand dunes that seem to flow directly into the ocean waves.
For the most dramatic experience, book an afternoon flight to see the sun setting over the Atlantic. The contrast between the water and the desert is most vivid between Agadir and Dakhla. Use a polarized filter for photos to cut through the frequent coastal haze and capture the deep turquoise of the Dakhla lagoon.
Casablanca Suburbs
Aerial views of the expanding urban landscape and industrial hubs south of Morocco's largest city.
Anti-Atlas Range
View the ancient, weathered peaks of the Anti-Atlas mountains with their unique geological folds.
The Hammada
The vast, rocky Saharan plateaus that stretch endlessly towards the eastern horizon.
Kedia d'Idjil
The massive iron ore mountain near Zouerat, appearing as a dark, metallic monolith against the sand.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. This side is superior for observing the transition from Mediterranean vegetation to the stark, rocky interior of the Sahara. Keep an eye out for the iron ore trains—among the longest in the world—winding through the desert near the end of the flight.
