Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers an incredible perspective of the Venezuelan mainland, including the rugged Paria Peninsula and the southern coastline of Margarita Island.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

Gulf of Paria

The tranquil body of water separating Trinidad from the South American continent, visible immediately after departure.

⛰️

Paria Peninsula

Dense, mountainous rainforests of Venezuela's northern coast that provide a dramatic emerald backdrop against the sea.

🏙️

Güiria Coastline

The small port towns and fishing villages along the Venezuelan coast as the flight proceeds westward.

🏖️

South Margarita Shore

Bird's eye views of the beaches and salt flats located on the southern edge of Margarita Island during descent.

Sit on the left for the best views of the Venezuelan mainland. If flying in the late afternoon, this side will be away from the direct sun, making photography of the Paria National Park much easier. Watch for the change in water color where the Orinoco river sediments meet the Caribbean.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🏝️

The Bocas Islands

The Dragon's Mouth islands, including Chacachacare, which mark the narrow passage between Trinidad and Venezuela.

🌊

Open Caribbean

Expansive views of the deep blue Caribbean Sea stretching toward the northern horizon.

🪨

Los Frailes Archipelago

A group of small, craggy volcanic islets that appear on the right just before the final approach into Porlamar.

The right side is ideal for morning flights to see the sunrise over the Atlantic behind you. It offers the best view of the Northern Range of Trinidad during takeoff from Piarco. Keep an eye out for the white-capped waves of the Caribbean during the mid-flight segment.
