Arrecife
The capital city of Lanzarote and its harbors visible as the flight tracks north-northeast.
Brittany Coastline
The intricate, rocky coast of western France, including the Penmarc'h Peninsula and coastal inlets.
The Needles
The iconic row of three distinctive chalk stacks rising out of the sea off the Isle of Wight.
Hurst Castle
An artillery fortress built by Henry VIII, guarding the narrow western entrance to the Solent.
Bournemouth Pier
A low-altitude view of the expansive sandy beaches and the pier just moments before touchdown.
The right side is highly recommended for the final 15 minutes of the flight. As you approach Bournemouth, you will likely see the Isle of Wight and the Solent. For the best photography of the English coast, choose an afternoon flight when the sun illuminates the white chalk cliffs from the west.

Dramatic view of the volcanic peaks and Martian-like landscapes of western Lanzarote shortly after takeoff.

Ouessant Island
The rugged, lighthouse-dotted island marking the westernmost point of metropolitan France.
Old Harry Rocks
