Stiltsville
A cluster of historic wooden houses built on stilts in the middle of Biscayne National Park's shallow waters.
Exuma Cays
A world-famous string of 365 tiny islands and sandbars stretching across the crystal-clear Great Bahama Bank.
Caicos Bank
A massive, shallow underwater plateau that creates some of the brightest turquoise water on the planet during descent.
Grace Bay
As the plane banks for landing at PLS, you can often spot the white sands and luxury resorts of Providenciales' most famous beach.
This is the premier side for 'island hopping' views from your window. Choose a seat behind the wing to capture the contrast of the turquoise water against the plane's engine. Mid-day flights provide the best lighting to see through the shallow water to the sandy bottom.

Miami & South Beach
Unmatched views of the downtown skyline, PortMiami, and the high-rises of South Beach immediately following departure.
Andros Island
View the eastern edge of the largest Bahamian island, featuring dense mangroves and mysterious inland blue holes.
Tongue of the Ocean
A dramatic oceanic trench where the water color shifts instantly from neon turquoise to a deep, dark midnight blue.
North Caicos
The lush, green landscape of the garden island of the Turks and Caicos as you enter the final approach pattern.
Sit on the left for the best views of Miami's architecture upon takeoff. Morning flights are ideal to keep the sun on the opposite side of the aircraft, reducing window glare for photography of the deep-sea trenches.
