Pentadaktylos Range
See the 'Five Finger' mountains of northern Cyprus, a sharp limestone ridge stretching along the coast.
Larnaca Salt Lake
Just before touchdown, look for the large salt lake which turns pink in winter due to brine shrimp and visiting flamingos.
The Right Side is ideal for sunset flights, offering golden hour views over the Mediterranean. During the approach to LCA, this side usually faces the island, providing a comprehensive view of the Nicosia plains and the Kyrenia mountains.
