Oban Harbor
The 'Gateway to the Isles' port town is often visible as the flight crosses the Argyll coastline.
Ben More
The highest peak on the Isle of Mull, standing at 966 meters, often provides a dramatic snowy backdrop in winter.
Duart Castle
The historic seat of Clan MacLean perched on a rocky crag on the Isle of Mull overlooking the sea.
Lismore Island
The long, fertile green island situated in the mouth of Loch Linnhe, visible before reaching Mull.
The right side is superior for mountain scenery and coastal architecture. For the best photography of the Mull mountains, morning flights are recommended to avoid shooting into the sun. As you approach Tiree, the right side often offers the best view of the island's famous turquoise 'machair' coastlines.
