IBZALC

Our Recommendation
9.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side is the definitive choice for this short hop, offering views of the historic Ibiza old town upon takeoff, a clear look at Formentera, and a stunning panoramic approach along the Costa Blanca coastline.

Right Side Highlights
9.2
🏰

Dalt Vila

The UNESCO-listed historic old town of Ibiza and the harbor as you climb out from IBZ.

🏝️

Formentera

Spectacular views of the neighboring island and the narrow sandbar of S'Espalmador.

🪨

Peñón de Ifach

The massive limestone rock of Calpe jutting into the sea as you approach the mainland.

🏙️

Benidorm Skyline

The dense concentration of skyscrapers along the coast, often referred to as the Manhattan of Spain.

⛰️

Serra Aitana

The rugged, mountainous backdrop of the Alicante province visible during the descent.

This side is superior for landmarks. Since this is a very short flight (approx. 30-45 minutes), ensure you are seated early to see Formentera. Afternoon flights offer the best lighting on the Benidorm skyline and the cliffs of the Costa Blanca.

Left Side Highlights
6.5
🏖️

Ses Salines Natural Park

The sparkling salt pans and turquoise waters of southern Ibiza immediately after takeoff.

⛰️

Es Vedrà

If the flight path banks west, look back for a glimpse of this iconic, mystical limestone rock.

🌊

Balearic Sea

Deep blue Mediterranean vistas for the majority of the flight's short cruising duration.

🚢

Alicante Harbor

Views of the industrial and passenger ferry terminals during the descent into ALC.

Sit on this side for morning flights to have the sun behind you. Keep your camera ready immediately after wheels-up to capture the vibrant colors of the salt flats.
