The Gold Coast
The continuous stretch of white sand beaches from West Palm Beach down to Fort Lauderdale.

Port of Miami
Dozens of massive cruise ships docked at one of the world's busiest passenger ports.
Sit on the left for the best sunrise views on morning flights and to avoid direct sun glare during afternoon flights. Keep your camera ready as you pass Central Florida to spot the distinctive shape of Cape Canaveral sticking out into the Atlantic. During the landing sequence, the left side typically offers a better view of the urban coastline and high-rises.

Piedmont Plateau
Dense forest canopies and rolling hills characteristic of the North Carolina and Georgia landscape.
Lake Okeechobee
The massive 'Inland Sea' of Florida, easily identifiable by its circular shape and surrounding dikes.
The Everglades
The 'River of Grass' stretching toward the horizon, featuring a unique mosaic of sawgrass and water.
Florida Inland Development
Intricate patterns of canal-front communities and golf courses that define South Florida's suburbs.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights if you enjoy watching the sunset over the Everglades. It is also the superior side for viewing Lake Okeechobee, which is a massive geographic landmark. During the final descent into MIA, look for the unique drainage canals and suburban sprawl that abruptly ends at the edge of the protected Everglades swamp.
