Exuma Cays Chain
A breathtaking string of small islands including Staniel Cay and Compass Cay, surrounded by vibrant neon-blue water.
Exuma Cays Land and Sea Park
View the world's first protected marine park, showcasing the most pristine and untouched waters in the Caribbean.
Tongue of the Ocean
A dramatic deep-water trench where the water turns from bright turquoise to midnight blue in a sharp, straight line.
Paradise Island & Atlantis
As the plane banks for landing, catch a glimpse of the massive Atlantis resort towers and the busy Nassau Harbor.
This side is the preferred choice for sightseeing. To see the colors at their most vivid, fly between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM when the sun is highest. Watch for the 'drop-off' near the cays where the shallow bank meets the deep ocean—it is one of the most famous geographic features in the Bahamas.

Great Bahama Bank
Vast stretches of shallow, pale turquoise water featuring intricate, naturally occurring white sand patterns.
Lee Stocking Island
Aerial views of the remote research station and the stunning sand spits surrounding the northern end of Great Exuma.
Southern New Providence
The approach to Nassau reveals the luxury coastal estates and coral reefs along the southern shore of the island.
The left side is excellent for observing the shifting sandbars of the Great Bahama Bank. For the best photography without glare, choose this side on morning flights. During the final approach into NAS, you will likely see the less-developed southern coast of New Providence.
