Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side provides a breathtaking continuous view of the Costa Verde's rugged coastline, the lush Serra do Mar mountain range, and the picturesque bays of Angra dos Reis and Paraty.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
⛰️

Serra do Mar

The dramatic, emerald-green mountain range covered in dense Atlantic Forest that hugs the Brazilian coastline.

🏝️

Ilha Grande & Angra

Stunning aerial views of the massive Ilha Grande and the numerous turquoise-water coves of Angra dos Reis.

🏘️

Paraty Bay

The historic colonial town and its surrounding bay, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site for its beauty.

🏗️

Port of Santos

A clear view of the massive infrastructure and urban sprawl of the Santos and Guarujá coastal area.

🏖️

Balneário Camboriú

During the final descent, catch glimpses of the 'Dubai of Brazil' with its famous high-rise skyline just south of Navegantes.

The right side is essential for scenic lovers. Sit behind the wing for unobstructed views of the Costa Verde. On late afternoon flights, the sun sets behind the mountains, creating a silhouette effect that is perfect for photography. Watch for the dramatic transition from the mountains to the sea as you approach the Itajaí valley.

Left Side Highlights
6.2
🌊

Atlantic Ocean Panoramas

Expansive views of the deep blue South Atlantic horizon and the reflection of the sun on the water.

🏝️

Cagarras Archipelago

Small, rocky uninhabited islands located just off the coast of Ipanema visible shortly after departure.

🚢

Santos Shipping Lanes

Spot large cargo ships and tankers queuing to enter the busiest port in Latin America.

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the sun. It offers a peaceful view of the ocean and is ideal for spotting offshore oil rigs and maritime traffic near the coast of São Paulo.
