St Peter Port
Clear views of Guernsey's capital harbor and the historic Castle Cornet upon departure.
Herm and Jethou
Tiny islands with white sand beaches and turquoise waters located just off Guernsey's coast.
Sark Island
The dramatic cliffs of Sark and 'La Coupée', a narrow ridge connecting two parts of the island.
Mont Orgueil
Depending on the approach, you may see this medieval castle overlooking Gorey on Jersey's east coast.
This is a very short flight (approx. 15-20 mins), so stay alert. The left side is consistently more scenic as it tracks past the island chain. Aim for a morning flight to have the sun behind you, highlighting the colors of the sea and the green island landscapes.
