Search flights from NAS to KIN
The Exuma Cays
A stunning 120-mile long string of pearls featuring turquoise waters and vibrant sandbars.
Long Island & Blue Holes
Views of the dramatic eastern cliffs and the deep sapphire waters of the surrounding banks.
Eastern Cuba Coastline
Rugged views of the Guantanamo province coastline as the flight crosses the Windward Passage.
Blue Mountains
Lush, mist-covered peaks of Jamaica's highest mountain range during the descent into Kingston.
Palisadoes Spit
The narrow tombolo that protects Kingston Harbour, visible just before touchdown.
Book a window seat ahead of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. Morning flights (8 AM - 11 AM) offer the best lighting as the sun illuminates the shallow turquoise waters of the Bahamas from the east. Look out for the distinct 'tongue of the ocean' where water depth drops from 20 to 2,000 meters.

The right side is excellent for sunset flights, as you'll see the sun dip below the Caribbean horizon. On the final approach into KIN, keep your camera ready for the contrast between the industrial port area and the green mountains. Note that cloud cover can often build over central Cuba by mid-afternoon.
