Our Recommendation

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🌊

Persian Gulf Vistas

Vast stretches of shallow, crystal-clear turquoise waters and coral reefs unique to this region.

⛽

Offshore Platforms

Look for the iconic oil and gas rigs and occasionally visible gas flares dotting the maritime landscape.

🏝️

Failaka Island

A historic island near the entrance of Kuwait Bay, home to archaeological sites and modern ruins.

🇰🇼

Kuwait City Coast

As you descend, enjoy a panoramic view of the Kuwait Towers and the dense urban landscape of the capital.

The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the Arabian sun. Keep your camera ready during the final 10 minutes of the flight for the best aerial views of Kuwait City and the Liberation Tower.

West Bay Skyline

A stunning perspective of Doha's high-rise district immediately after departing Hamad International.

The Pearl-Qatar

View the intricate man-made islands and luxury marinas that define Doha's northern coast.

Al-Hasa Coastline

The stark contrast where the golden sands of the Saudi Arabian desert meet the turquoise waters of the Gulf.

Jubail Industrial City

One of the world's largest industrial hubs with sprawling petrochemical complexes visible along the coast.
