Which side of the plane to sit from Fort Lauderdale Hollywood International Airport (Fort Lauderdale) to Governor's Harbour Airport (Governor's Harbor)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers spectacular views of the Great Bahama Bank's turquoise patterns, the city of Nassau in the distance, and the dramatic narrow coastline of central Eleuthera.
Miami & Biscayne Bay
Distant views of the Miami skyline and the northern reaches of the Florida Keys shortly after departure.
Great Bahama Bank
Incredible swirling white sand patterns and shallow neon-blue waters that define the Bahamian archipelago.
New Providence Island
Look south to see the capital city of Nassau and the iconic towers of the Atlantis Resort on Paradise Island.
Glass Window Bridge
On approach, view the narrowest point of the island where the dark Atlantic is separated from the calm Bight of Eleuthera by a sliver of rock.
The right side is superior for water color enthusiasts. Aim for a flight between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM when the sun is high to see the most vivid turquoise hues in the shallow banks. Keep your camera ready during the final 10 minutes for the dramatic Eleuthera shoreline.
Fort Lauderdale Coastline
Aerial view of the 'Venice of America' canals and the white sand beaches of Broward County during initial climb.
The Berry Islands
Spot the cruise ship private destinations of Great Stirrup Cay and CocoCay surrounded by vibrant coral reefs.
The Atlantic Drop-off
Observe the striking color change where the shallow turquoise bank ends and the deep navy blue Atlantic begins.
Sit on the left for a morning flight to avoid direct glare. This side is excellent for spotting cruise ships docked at the northern cays of the Berry Islands before the final descent into Governor's Harbour.
