Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the Leizhou Peninsula and the intricate coastline of Beihai during the descent, providing a clear perspective of the mainland's southernmost tip.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🌿

Nandu River Delta

Intricate network of river branches and fertile wetlands surrounding the airport during initial climb.

📍

Leizhou Peninsula

Exceptional views of the southernmost tip of Guangdong province as the flight crosses the strait.

🏗️

Tieshangang Port

Large-scale industrial port facilities and cargo ships dotting the eastern coast of Beihai.

🏖️

Silver Beach

The famous white sands and turquoise waters of Beihai's coast visible during the final approach sequence.

🦐

Coastal Aquaculture

A patchwork of shrimp and fish farms along the Guangxi coastline providing unique geometric patterns.

The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid sun glare. Keep your camera ready as you cross the Qiongzhou Strait, as the proximity to the Leizhou Peninsula provides excellent geographical context. During the descent into BHY, look for the massive industrial complexes and the distinct white sandy beaches of the Beihai region.

🏙️

Haikou Skyline

Panoramic views of Haikou's modern high-rises and the landmark Haikou Century Bridge shortly after takeoff.

🌊

Qiongzhou Strait

A direct view of the deep blue waters separating Hainan Island from the Chinese mainland.

🌅

Gulf of Tonkin

Expansive maritime vistas over the Beibu Gulf, particularly stunning during late afternoon flights.

🏝️

Weizhou Island

Distal views of China's largest volcanic island visible on the horizon during clear weather conditions.

Choose the left side for evening flights to witness the sunset over the Gulf of Tonkin. This side is also better for seeing the sprawling urban development of Haikou immediately after departure from Meilan Airport.
