Georgetown Coastline
The seawall and the dense urban layout of Guyana's capital as the plane aligns for landing.
Stabroek Market
Look for the prominent clock tower of the historic iron market during the final descent.
Book a window seat on the left (usually 'A') for morning flights to see the sunrise over the Atlantic. During the descent into GEO, the left side typically faces the city of Georgetown, offering a better view of the urban sprawl and the historic seawall. Ensure your window is clean to capture the vibrant blues of the Bahamas.

Florida Keys

Andros Island

Orinoco Delta Influence

The right side (usually 'F' or 'K') is ideal for avoiding direct sunlight on afternoon flights. Keep a close eye on the water color changes as you cross from the Caribbean into South American airspace; the transition from bright blue to 'tea-colored' water signifies the proximity to the massive river systems of the Guianas.
