LEI → SVQ

Search flights from LEI to SVQ
Sierra Nevada Peaks
Spectacular views of Mulhacén and Veleta, the highest mountains in mainland Spain, often snow-capped.
Granada & Alhambra
A distant but clear view of the historic city of Granada nestled at the foot of the mountains.
The Olive Sea
Endless geometric patterns of olive groves that characterize the provinces of Jaén and Córdoba.
Sevilla Skyline
The iconic Giralda tower and the world's largest Gothic cathedral visible during the descent into SVQ.
This is the 'must-sit' side for mountain photography; the Sierra Nevada views are world-class, especially in winter and spring. For the best views of Sevilla's historic center, hope for a western approach (runway 27), which places the city landmarks directly in your window.

Cabo de Gata-Níjar
Dramatic volcanic cliffs and crystal-clear coves of the natural park immediately after takeoff.
Alboran Sea
Deep blue expanses of the westernmost Mediterranean coastline stretching toward North Africa.
Costa Tropical
The scenic meeting point where the steep Andalusian mountains drop directly into the sea near Motril.
Guadalquivir Marshes
The intricate wetlands and agricultural patterns of the river basin as you approach Sevilla.
Choose the left side for early morning flights to enjoy the sunrise reflecting off the Mediterranean. It is also the better side for viewing the rugged coastline if the flight path stays closer to the shore. During the summer, this side avoids the harsh midday sun coming from the south.
