Our Recommendation
8.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side is superior for this short hop, providing expansive views of the South China Sea and the iconic Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge during the descent into Zhuhai.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
⚓

Haikou Bay

Views of the busy shipping lanes and the majestic Haikou Century Bridge shortly after departure.

🌊

South China Sea

An uninterrupted horizon of deep blue water, often dotted with massive cargo ships.

🏝️

Wanshan Archipelago

Dozens of small, mountainous green islands scattered across the sea south of Zhuhai.

🗼

Macau Skyline

On clear days, the distinctive Grand Lisboa and Macau Tower are visible just across the water.

🌉

HZMB Bridge

The incredible engineering of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge stretching across the estuary.

The right side is the 'money side' for landing at Zhuhai Jinwan. For the best experience, choose a window seat behind the wing to see the bridge and Macau. Early morning flights offer the best lighting for photography of the islands, while evening flights allow you to see the bridge lights and Macau's glowing casinos.

Left Side Highlights
7.4
🏙️

Haikou Skyline

A clear view of the dense urban center of Haikou and Haidian Island immediately after takeoff.

🌊

Qiongzhou Strait

The narrow 30km body of water that separates Hainan Island from the Chinese mainland.

🗾

Leizhou Peninsula

The volcanic landscape and red soil typical of the southernmost tip of Guangdong province.

🏗️

Western Guangdong Ports

Industrial coastal infrastructure near Zhanjiang and Maoming visible along the flight path.

🌾

Pearl River Delta Wetlands

The intricate mosaic of fish ponds and agricultural land as the plane nears Zhuhai.

Sit on the left if you want to see the geographical transition from the tropical island of Hainan to the industrial heartland of the Pearl River Delta. This side is better during sunset flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun while viewing the coastline.
