Atlantic Coast
Uninterrupted views of the vast Atlantic Ocean and the long stretches of coastline in southern Brazil.
Florianópolis
A breathtaking view of the 'Magic Island', including the lagoons and the urban centers of the state capital.
Balneário Camboriú
The impressive skyline of South America's tallest skyscrapers hugging the coastline.
Babitonga Bay
The intricate archipelago and estuarine waters that lead directly into the Joinville airport area.
Port of Itajaí
One of Brazil's most active ports can often be seen near the mouth of the Itajaí-Açu River.
The right side is superior for coastal landmarks. For the best lighting, morning flights are ideal as the sun illuminates the coastline. Watch closely during the final 10 minutes; the descent over Babitonga Bay is one of the most scenic approaches in the region.

Serra Gaúcha
View of the rolling hills and high plateaus of the Gaucho highlands shortly after departure.
Aparados da Serra
Distant views of the massive canyons of the National Park, marking the border between RS and SC.
Mata Atlântica
Deep green expanses of protected Atlantic Forest covering the rugged inland mountains.
Joinville Hinterland

Choose the left side for late afternoon flights to enjoy the sunset over the mountains. It provides a better perspective of the interior plateau and the vertical cliffs of the Serra Geral if the flight path is slightly more inland.
