Southern Paris Suburbs
Aerial views of the Essonne department and the urban transition from Paris to the countryside.
Le Mans Region
Fly south of the city of Le Mans, where you may spot the famous Circuit de la Sarthe racetrack.
Gulf of Morbihan
A stunning inland sea dotted with dozens of emerald islands near Vannes, best seen during descent.
Quiberon Peninsula
A striking narrow finger of land extending into the Atlantic, clearly visible on the final approach.
Belle-Île-en-Mer
Brittany's largest island, providing a majestic silhouette on the horizon over the ocean.
The left side is superior for coastal views. For morning flights, this side avoids the direct glare of the sun, making it better for photography. During the final 15 minutes of the flight, the terrain transitions from agricultural fields to the intricate water-and-island landscape of the Morbihan, which is the route's visual highlight.
