Ise Bay & Chita Peninsula
Aerial perspective of one of Japan's busiest maritime corridors and the industrial landscape of the Chita Peninsula.
Ise-Shima National Park
Exceptional views of the sacred Ise area and the intricate, pearl-rich waters of Ago Bay's rugged coastline.
Kii Mountain Range
The southern UNESCO-listed peaks of the Kii Peninsula, featuring dense forests and deep, mystical valleys.
Cape Muroto
A dramatic view of the sharp southeastern tip of Shikoku jutting into the vast Pacific Ocean.
Tosa Bay Coastline
The long, curving sandy beaches leading directly into the approach for Kōchi Ryōma Airport.
For the best visibility of the Shima Peninsula's intricate coastline, book a morning flight when the sun illuminates the water from the east. This side is also superior for viewing the seasonal change in forest colors across the Kii Mountains. During the final descent, watch for the distinct white surf crashing against the cliffs of Cape Muroto.
