Eleuthera Shoreline
Immediate views of the narrow, lush landscapes of Central Eleuthera and the shallow bight.
Great Bahama Bank
Stunning 'underwater deserts' consisting of white sand dunes visible through shallow turquoise water.
The Shelf Break
The dramatic visual transition where the shallow teal bank drops off into the deep indigo of the ocean.
Port Everglades
A bird's-eye view of massive cruise ships and the industrial majesty of the Fort Lauderdale port.
Hollywood Beach
The final descent offers clear views of the Florida 'Gold Coast' beaches and high-rise condos.
Choose the left side for afternoon flights to keep the sun behind you, which enhances the saturation of the turquoise water. This side is also superior for spotting the complex sand bore patterns of the Bahama Bank. During the final 10 minutes of flight, look out for the Seminole Hard Rock 'Guitar Hotel' visible in the distance to the southwest.

Glass Window Bridge
Depending on the flight path, you may see the narrowest point of Eleuthera where the Atlantic meets the Caribbean.
Berry Islands
A chain of remote cays and private islands situated at the edge of the Great Bahama Bank.
The Gulf Stream
The crossing of the powerful, dark-blue warm water current that flows between the Bahamas and Florida.
Pompano Beach
Views of the northern Fort Lauderdale suburbs, canals, and golf courses during the descent.
The right side is excellent for morning flights as it avoids the direct glare of the sun reflecting off the water. It provides a better perspective of the Berry Islands chain. Keep your camera ready as you cross the Florida coastline to capture the contrast between the deep ocean and the suburban 'Venice of America' canal systems.
