Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a spectacular vantage point for the Spanish Mediterranean coastline, the iconic Rock of Gibraltar, and the dramatic meeting point of the Atlantic Ocean and the Moroccan Sahara desert.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏖️

Costa Brava & Barcelona

Excellent views of the Catalan coastline and the urban sprawl of Barcelona as the plane tracks southwest.

🪨

Rock of Gibraltar

A highlight of the trip, where you can see the famous limestone monolith and the narrow gap between Europe and Africa.

🕌

Casablanca Skyline

Look for the towering minaret of the Hassan II Mosque, one of the few landmarks visible from high altitude along the coast.

🌊

Atlantic Coastline

The stark contrast between the deep blue Atlantic waves and the golden Moroccan sands as you approach Agadir.

☀️

Souss-Massa Horizon

During the final descent, enjoy the panoramic view of the Atlantic horizon and the winding Souss river.

The right side is unbeatable for coastal enthusiasts. For late afternoon flights, you will be treated to a spectacular sunset over the Atlantic Ocean. Ensure you have a window seat clear of the wing to fully capture the Strait of Gibraltar crossing.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🛶

Calanques National Park

Immediately after takeoff from Marseille, view the stunning limestone cliffs and turquoise inlets of the French Riviera.

🏔️

Rif Mountains

As you enter Moroccan airspace, the rugged, green peaks of the Rif range provide a dramatic introduction to Africa.

🏔️

High Atlas Peaks

On the inland approach to Agadir, witness the snow-capped summits of the Atlas Mountains, including Toubkal in the distance.

🏙️

Marrakesh

Often visible as a terracotta-colored expanse nestled at the foot of the mountains shortly before the descent begins.

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side is superior for viewing the interior geography of Morocco, specifically the majestic Atlas range. Keep an eye out for the Ebro Delta when crossing the Spanish coast.
