Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side of the aircraft offers spectacular views of the Tunisian coastline, including the Kerkennah Islands, the coastal cities of Sfax and Monastir, and the deep blue expanse of the Gulf of Hammamet.

Right Side Highlights

๐ŸŒŠ

Gulf of Gabรจs

Crystal clear turquoise waters and shallow sandbanks visible shortly after departing the island.

๐Ÿ๏ธ

Kerkennah Islands

A bird's-eye view of this low-lying archipelago and the traditional V-shaped 'charfia' fishing traps in the surrounding water.

๐Ÿ—๏ธ

Sfax Port

Views of Tunisia's industrial hub, including the historic medina walls and the busy shipping lanes.

๐Ÿ–๏ธ

Sahel Coastline

The beautiful resorts and historic Ribats of Monastir and Sousse lining the Mediterranean shore.

๐Ÿ›ฅ๏ธ

Gulf of Hammamet

A wide-angle view of the large bay, often dotted with cargo ships and local fishing boats.

๐Ÿ›๏ธ

Lake of Tunis & Carthage

During the final approach, look for the ancient ruins of Carthage and the Punic Ports adjacent to the Lake of Tunis.

The right side is unbeatable for coastal scenery. For the best lighting on the water and the white-washed coastal towns, a morning flight is ideal. During the descent into TUN, this side often provides the most iconic views of the Gulf of Tunis and the Roman ruins near the coast.

๐Ÿ๏ธ

Djerba Inland

Aerial perspective of Djerba's unique architecture, salt pans, and vast olive groves immediately after takeoff.

The changing colors of the Tunisian interior, transitioning from arid desert-like plains to greener agricultural zones.

Sebkhet de Sidi El Hani

A massive salt lake that appears as a shimmering white or pinkish expanse depending on the water level and light.

Djebel Zaghouan

The prominent limestone ridge of the Tunisian Dorsal range, which served as the water source for ancient Carthage.

Greater Tunis

The sprawling suburban landscape of the capital city as the plane begins its final descent into Carthage Airport.

Choose the left side for afternoon flights to keep the sun behind you. This side provides a better view of the rugged inland topography and the transition between the Saharan climate and the Mediterranean north. Keep an eye out for the historic city of Kairouan in the distance during mid-flight.
