Kobe Waterfront
Clear views of Port Island, Rokko Island, and the dense urban sprawl of Kobe city.
Akashi Kaikyo Bridge
The world's second-longest suspension bridge, providing an incredible engineering perspective.
Seto Inland Sea
A maze-like view of hundreds of small islands and busy shipping lanes.
Kunisaki Peninsula
The unique circular volcanic geography of Oita's northern coast visible during descent.
This is the premier side for photography. Ensure you are ready within 5-10 minutes of takeoff to capture the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge. In the afternoon, the sun will be behind you, providing perfectly lit views of the islands and the Kunisaki Peninsula's volcanic ridges. Choose a seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze.
