Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side provides a superior view of the dramatic contrast between the rugged Kirthar Mountains and the vast Manchar Lake, followed by a scenic approach over the Karachi coastline.

Right Side Highlights

🏞️

Manchar Lake

One of Asia's largest freshwater lakes, appearing as a massive blue mirror shortly after departing Moenjodaro.

⛰️

Kirthar Mountain Range

Rugged, sun-scorched limestone ridges that form a natural boundary between Sindh and Balochistan.

🕌

Sehwan Sharif Area

Fly over the historical region surrounding the famous Sufi shrine, nestled between the mountains and the river.

💧

Hub Dam and Lake

A striking reservoir with turquoise waters located on the edge of Karachi's city limits.

🏖️

Arabian Sea Coast

During the final descent into Karachi, enjoy views of Cape Monze and the coastal cliffs of western Karachi.

Sit here for afternoon flights to capture the golden hour light hitting the Kirthar ridges. Keep your camera ready shortly after takeoff for Manchar Lake and during the last 10 minutes of flight for the Hub Dam and the Arabian Sea coastline.

Left Side Highlights

🌊

Indus River Meanders

The lifeline of Pakistan winds through the plains, showcasing impressive oxbow lakes and silver water channels.

🌾

Sindh Floodplains

A vibrant patchwork of emerald green agricultural fields contrasting sharply with the surrounding arid landscapes.

🛣️

The Indus Highway

A clear view of the N-55 highway connecting the historic cities of the Sindh province.

🏙️

Hyderabad Outskirts

Choose this side for morning flights to enjoy soft lighting over the river plains without the direct glare of the sun. It is ideal for photography of the geometric irrigation patterns typical of the region.
