Côte d'Azur
A stunning view of the French Riviera, including Monaco, Nice, and Cannes shortly after takeoff.
Barcelona Coastline
The iconic grid layout and beaches of the Catalan capital are often visible from the air.
Sierra Nevada
The high, often snow-capped peaks of Southern Spain provide a dramatic backdrop to the coast.
Strait of Gibraltar
The legendary 'Pillars of Hercules' where the Mediterranean meets the Atlantic Ocean.
Rabat Shoreline
The capital city of Morocco and its historic fortifications visible during the final leg of the flight.
The right side is the definitive choice for landscape photographers. Try to secure a seat in front of the wing for unobstructed views of the Rock of Gibraltar, which usually appears about 30 to 40 minutes before landing. Sunset flights offer a magnificent 'Golden Hour' view over the Atlantic as you track the Moroccan coastline.

Balearic Islands
Distant silhouettes of Ibiza and Formentera emerging from the Mediterranean.
Middle Atlas Mountains
The rugged, arid peaks of the Atlas range during the descent into Morocco.

Opt for the left side on morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the southern sun. Keep binoculars ready for spotting the Balearic Islands mid-flight. During the winter months, the Atlas Mountains on this side may show a light dusting of snow during your descent.
