Immediate views of the historic San Felipe Fort and the bustling container terminal upon departure.
Maiquetía & La Guaira

Cabo Codera
The prominent cape where the mountains finally recede, revealing beautiful hidden coves and beaches.
Islands of Coche & Cubagua
Stunning aerial views of these arid, flat islands with their pinkish salt flats during the descent into Porlamar.
This side is highly recommended for the best geographic diversity. Morning flights provide the most vibrant greens in the mountains. During the descent, the right side almost always gets a direct view of Coche Island's famous salt pans and turquoise shoreline before landing at PMV.
