Conwy & Llandudno
The Great Orme headland and the Victorian seaside architecture along the North Wales coast.
The Wirral Peninsula
Affluent coastal towns and prestigious golf courses like Royal Liverpool at Hoylake.
River Mersey Estuary
A sweeping view of the wide estuary and the various sandbanks that shift with the tides.
LPL Airport Approach
A unique perspective of the runway which is positioned strikingly close to the water's edge.
The right side is the scenic winner for geographic diversity. Look south mid-flight to spot the wind farms in the Irish Sea. For the best lighting on the Welsh mountains, book an afternoon or early evening flight when the sun is in the west, illuminating the peaks and the coastline.
