Right Side Highlights
8.5
🧂

Salt Lake Systems

Intricate white and pink patterns of inland salt lakes such as Lake Johnston and Lake Grace.

🌾

Wheatbelt Mosaic

Vast geometric patterns of agricultural land that transition from vibrant green in winter to gold in summer.

⛰️

Darling Scarp

The forested range that marks the edge of the coastal plain, providing a dramatic change in terrain.

🏙️

Perth City Skyline

A prime view of the CBD skyscrapers, the Swan River, and Optus Stadium as the plane aligns with the runway.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights as the sun will be behind you. For the most iconic view of the Perth city center, this is the side to be on. Keep an eye out for the white salt crusts of the interior lakes mid-flight.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏖️

Esperance Coastline

Stunning views of the turquoise waters and white sands of Esperance Bay immediately after takeoff.

🏝️

Archipelago of the Recherche

A bird's-eye view of the granite islands scattered across the Southern Ocean near the coast.

🌊

Southern Coastline

Panoramic views of the rugged Western Australian coast as the plane turns northwest.

🏙️

Mandurah Estuary

Aerial perspective of the coastal city of Mandurah and its complex canal systems during the descent.

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the harsh afternoon sun. It is the best side for capturing the initial departure over the 'Bay of Isles' and the southern suburbs of Perth near the Indian Ocean.
