Which side of the plane to sit from Munda Airport (Munda) to Sege Airport (Sege)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides the most iconic views of the Solomon Islands, specifically the breathtaking Marovo Lagoon with its complex maze of turquoise reefs and hundreds of tiny emerald-green islets.
Roviana Lagoon
Incredible turquoise water patterns and intricate coral structures immediately visible after takeoff from Munda.
Marovo Lagoon Islets
A world-class view of the world's largest saltwater lagoon, featuring hundreds of palm-fringed islands surrounded by crystal-clear water.
Rendova Peak
The distinct, towering volcanic silhouette of Rendova Island visible across the Blanche Channel to the south.
Coral Reef Systems
A spectacular look at the transition from shallow, bright turquoise reefs to the deep indigo of the Solomon Sea.
Request a seat on the right side for the ultimate Marovo Lagoon experience. This is a very short flight (approx. 20-30 minutes) at a low altitude, so keep your camera ready from the moment of takeoff. Morning flights are best as the sun will be behind you, highlighting the vibrant colors of the coral without glare.
New Georgia Rainforest
Vast stretches of untouched, dense tropical rainforest that cover the rugged interior of New Georgia Island.
Volcanic Ridges
The jagged volcanic peaks of the New Georgia Group, often shrouded in dramatic morning mist.
Coastal Hamlets
Bird's-eye views of small, traditional Solomon Islander villages along the coastline and lagoon edges.
Sit on the left if you prefer views of the mountainous island interior and the deep green canopy of the rainforest. Morning flights are ideal for seeing the mist rising from the valleys, providing a mystical atmosphere to the landscape.
