POSMIA

Our Recommendation
8.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides the most dramatic views of the mountainous Caribbean islands and a superior perspective of the Miami coastline and skyline during the standard approach.

Left Side Highlights
8.8
⛰️

Northern Range

Dense, rainforest-covered mountains of Trinidad visible immediately after takeoff from POS.

🏝️

Hispaniola Coastline

Aerial views of the rugged northern shores of the Dominican Republic and Haiti.

🌊

Turks and Caicos

Stunning vistas of the shallow, bright turquoise waters and coral reefs surrounding the islands.

🏝️

Exuma Chain

The iconic string of tiny, emerald cays stretching across the sapphire blue Bahamian waters.

🏙️

Miami Skyline

Breathtaking views of South Beach, the Port of Miami, and the downtown skyscrapers during the final descent.

Select a seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat distortion. Morning flights are best as the sun will be on the right side of the aircraft, providing perfect lighting for the Caribbean islands and the Florida coastline.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
🚢

Gulf of Paria

The busy maritime corridor between Trinidad and Venezuela, filled with tankers and cargo ships.

💧

Great Bahama Bank

Vast stretches of incredible neon-blue shallow water and underwater sand dunes.

🏝️

Andros Island

Views of the largest Bahamian island, known for its intricate network of blue holes and mangroves.

🐊

The Everglades

The expansive 'River of Grass' wetlands visible if the flight patterns require a western approach to MIA.

🌉

Florida Keys

Distant views of the upper keys and the Seven Mile Bridge on clear days during the arrival phase.

The right side is excellent for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. Keep your camera ready over the Bahamas for the unique patterns of the 'tongue of the ocean' deep-water trenches.
