Shima Peninsula
The complex inlets and pearl cultivation rafts of Ise-Shima National Park shortly after takeoff.
Kii Mountain Range
The UNESCO-listed sacred mountains and deep valleys of the Kumano Kodo region.
Shikoku Interior
High altitude views of the Shikoku mountains, including the Shikoku Karst and Mount Ishizuchi.
Kochi City & Tosa Bay
A view of the crescent-shaped coastline of Tosa Bay and the urban center of Kochi.
Miyazaki Coastline
Lush tropical scenery and sandy beaches during the descent into Miyazaki Airport.
Sit on the right for the best photographic opportunities. Shortly after leaving NGO, watch for the jagged coastline of Mie Prefecture. During mid-flight, the rugged terrain of Shikoku is spectacular. For afternoon flights, be aware of potential glare from the sun, but the terrain details usually make it worth it. On final approach, look for the unique 'washing board' rock formations along the coast if the flight path allows.

Pacific Ocean Horizon
Expansive views of the deep blue Philippine Sea extending toward the horizon.
Cape Shionomisaki
The southernmost point of Honshu island, visible as the plane tracks along the coast.
Muroto Cape
The sharp, prominent headland on the southeastern tip of Shikoku island.
Sunrise Vistas
Ideal for morning flights to see the sun rising over the Pacific waters.
Choose this side if you prefer the calming effect of open water or are flying on an early morning flight and want to catch the sunrise. While less scenic in terms of landmarks, it provides a clear view of the distinct capes marking the southern edge of the Japanese archipelago.
