Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides a continuous panorama of the stunning Mediterranean coastline, the 'White City' of Algiers, and the iconic blue-and-white architecture of Sidi Bou Said during the final approach.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

Alboran Sea Coast

The rugged northern coastline of Morocco and the Spanish enclaves visible shortly after takeoff.

🏙️

Bay of Algiers

A sweeping view of the Algerian capital, known for its white buildings rising steeply from the Mediterranean.

⚓

Port of Oran

Clear views of the historic Santa Cruz fort and the bustling harbor of Algeria's second-largest city.

⛰️

Cap Carbon

Dramatic limestone cliffs and one of the world's highest lighthouses near the Gulf of Bejaia.

🏰

Sidi Bou Said & Carthage

The quintessential blue and white village and the ancient Roman ruins as you descend into Tunis.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the harsh southern sun. During the final descent, look out for the distinct horseshoe shape of the ancient Punic Port of Carthage. Clear winter days offer the best visibility of the coastal cliff details.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🏔️

Tell Atlas Mountains

The snow-capped peaks of the Atlas range in winter, providing a stark contrast to the valleys below.

🌾

Chelif River Valley

Geometric patterns of Algerian agriculture along the country's longest river system.

🏜️

High Plateaus

The transition zone between the green coastal mountains and the vast Saharan landscape to the south.

🦩

Sebkhet Sedjoumi

A large salt lake on the outskirts of Tunis, often reflecting the sky with a mirror-like finish.

🏢

Tunis Urban Core

A wide view of the sprawling capital city and the Lake of Tunis before landing.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights as the sun will be behind the aircraft, illuminating the Atlas Mountains beautifully. Watch for the dramatic change in terrain from green mountain ridges to the more arid plateaus as you fly east.
