Bering Sea Coastline
Observe the stark boundary where the flat Alaskan tundra meets the vast, cold waters of the Bering Sea.
Kuskokwim Bay
Expansive views of the shallow, silt-rich bay that defines the survival and transport of the region.
Tidal Estuaries
Witness the intricate, branching patterns formed by receding tides along the muddy river mouths.
Choose the left side for the best chance to see the interaction between the ocean and land. During winter months, look for the pressure ridges and unique patterns of shore-fast ice. If flying at sunset, the light reflecting off the Bering Sea provides excellent photographic opportunities.

Kwigillingok Village
Get a rare aerial perspective of the boardwalks and community layout of Kwigillingok immediately after takeoff.
Endless Tundra Ponds
Thousands of mirror-like kettle lakes and ponds dot the landscape as far as the eye can see.
Serpentine Sloughs
Marvel at the extreme, snake-like meanders of the delta rivers that weave through the marshland.
The right side is perfect for observing the vastness of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta. Keep your eyes peeled for migratory birds or larger wildlife like muskox in the marshes. Morning flights are best on this side to catch the low sun highlighting the texture of the tundra.
