Our Recommendation
8.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers unparalleled views of the volcanic landscapes of the Leeward Islands, most notably the active Soufrière Hills volcano on Montserrat and the lush peaks of Guadeloupe.

Left Side Highlights
8.8
🌋

Basse-Terre Peaks

The rugged, mountainous terrain of western Guadeloupe, including the La Grande Soufrière volcano.

💨

Soufrière Hills, Montserrat

Dramatic views of the active volcano and the exclusion zone where ash has reshaped the island.

🏚️

Plymouth Ghost Town

The abandoned, ash-buried former capital of Montserrat visible on the island's southern coast.

🪨

Redonda

A glimpse of the tiny, uninhabited, and steep volcanic rock islet between Montserrat and Nevis.

Sit toward the front or rear of the wing to avoid engine heat blur. Morning flights provide the clearest views of Montserrat's peaks before clouds typically gather around the volcano in the afternoon. Keep your camera ready shortly after takeoff as the transition between islands is very fast.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🏖️

Grande-Terre Shoreline

The flatter, limestone-based eastern half of Guadeloupe with its white sand beaches and turquoise lagoons.

⚓

English Harbour

The historic Nelson's Dockyard and surrounding fortifications on the southern coast of Antigua.

🌊

Falmouth Harbour

A deep-water bay often filled with luxury yachts and sailboats as you descend into ANU.

🏘️

St. John's Cityscape

The colorful capital of Antigua and the cruise ship terminal visible during the final approach.

The right side is best for observing the maritime heritage of Antigua. During the descent, watch for the intricate coral reefs surrounding the island. This side is particularly scenic during late afternoon flights when the sun illuminates the Antiguan coastline from the west.
