Our Recommendation
8.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides a spectacular panorama of the Mediterranean coastline, including the rugged Calanques of Marseille, the urban grid of Barcelona, and the unique geography of the Ebro Delta.

Left Side Highlights
8.8
🌊

Calanques National Park

Aerial views of the turquoise coves and limestone cliffs immediately after takeoff from Marseille.

🏙️

Barcelona Cityscape

Clear visibility of the Sagrada Familia and the perfectly square blocks of the Eixample district.

🌾

Ebro Delta

The striking bird-foot shape of one of the Mediterranean's most important wetland areas.

🏖️

Costa Blanca

Glistening white beaches and high-rise coastal developments like Benidorm visible along the shoreline.

🏔️

Sierra Nevada Peaks

On clear days, the snow-capped Mulhacén peak, the highest on the Iberian Peninsula, is visible to the south.

Choose a morning flight for the best illumination of the coastline without the glare from the Mediterranean Sea. If flying in the late afternoon, expect the sun to be on this side, making photography difficult. Sit behind the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Ebro Delta.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
⛰️

The Pyrenees

The jagged, snow-capped peaks of the mountain range forming the border between France and Spain.

🪨

Montserrat

The distinctive multi-peaked rocky range near Barcelona, known for its unique rounded shapes.

🚜

The Meseta

The vast, high-altitude plateau of central Spain, showing a patchwork of golden and green fields.

🏰

La Mancha Castles

Occasional sightings of medieval fortifications and wind turbines across the arid plains.

🏞️

Sierra Morena

The rugged, forested mountains that mark the final descent into the fertile Guadalquivir valley.

The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights as the setting sun casts dramatic long shadows over the Spanish Meseta and the Sierra Morena. Keep an eye out for the Ebro River snaking through the landscape shortly after crossing the border.
