Peninsula Valdes
UNESCO site known for whale sightings; look for the distinct shape and white salt flats.
San Matias Gulf
A massive deep-blue bay that the flight crosses shortly after takeoff from Madryn.
Atlantic Coastline
Rugged cliffs and remote sandy beaches lining the edge of the continent.
Rio de la Plata
The world's widest river, famous for its distinct brown, silty water as you approach the capital.
Buenos Aires Skyline
A spectacular view of the downtown skyscrapers and docks during the final approach into AEP.
Sit on the right side for the most iconic arrival in Argentina; the plane usually banks over the river, offering a full view of the city. If flying between June and December, look down near the coast for splashes of Southern Right Whales. Morning flights offer the best illumination of the coastline and Peninsula Valdes.
