The unique, narrow UNESCO-listed sand dune spit separating the Baltic Sea from the Curonian Lagoon.
Kiel Canal
The world's most frequented artificial waterway, cutting through Northern Germany's Schleswig-Holstein.
The Wadden Sea
The intricate patterns of the Dutch and German intertidal mudflats and the Frisian Islands.
Dublin Skyline
As you cross the Irish Sea, the entire Dublin Bay and city center are visible before turning toward Knock.
Wicklow Mountains
The rolling green peaks of the 'Garden of Ireland' dominate the southern horizon upon landfall.
Sit on the left for the best morning light during westbound flights, avoiding the glare of the southern sun. This side is particularly spectacular during the descent over Ireland, where you can see the contrast between the Irish Sea and the inland greenery. If flying in winter, look for the snow-capped peaks of the Wicklow Mountains.
