Our Recommendation
9.2

Left Side of the Plane

The left side of the aircraft provides an incredible front-row seat to the turquoise waters of the Grenadines, the lush volcanic slopes of St. Vincent, and a breathtaking approach into Saint Lucia featuring the iconic Pitons.

Left Side Highlights
9.2
🇬🇩

Grenada Coastline

Panoramic views of the capital, St. George's, and the hilly terrain of the 'Spice Isle' during takeoff.

🏝️

Tobago Cays

Vibrant turquoise coral reefs and uninhabited islets visible from a high-altitude perspective.

⛰️

Union Island

The dramatic, jagged volcanic profile of Mount Taboi rising sharply from the Caribbean Sea.

🚢

Bequia & Mustique

Aerial views of Port Elizabeth harbor and the exclusive beach villas scattered across the Grenadines.

🌋

St. Vincent Peaks

The lush, cloud-covered mountains of the Leeward coast as you track north toward Saint Lucia.

🏔️

The Pitons

Saint Lucia's famous twin volcanic spires come into view shortly before the descent into Hewanorra.

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the rising sun over the Atlantic. This side offers the best views of the Grenadine archipelago. Keep your camera ready as you pass St. Vincent; the transition from the deep blue sea to the lush green mountain ridges is stunning. On the approach to UVF, the Pitons are often visible if the plane tracks slightly west of the direct path.

Right Side Highlights
6.5
🌊

Atlantic Horizon

The vast, deep blue expanse of the Atlantic Ocean meeting the rugged eastern shores of the islands.

🏠

Mustique Estates

A view of the windward side of the exclusive private island, known for its luxury celebrity retreats.

💨

Windward Cliffs

The dramatic, wave-battered eastern coastline of St. Vincent, featuring black sand beaches.

🐦

Maria Islands

A final view of the protected nature reserve islets located just off the southeastern tip of Saint Lucia.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to enjoy the golden hour light reflecting off the Atlantic. While you miss the majority of the Grenadines, you get a clearer view of the rugged, less-developed eastern coastlines. Be sure to look out just before landing at UVF for the Maria Islands, which are home to some of the world's rarest reptiles.
