Turks and Caicos
Crystal clear views of the coral reefs surrounding Providenciales and the northern cays.
Exuma Cays
A mesmerizing 120-mile long string of cays that look like jewels scattered across the shallow sea.
Nassau & Paradise Island
Clear views of the Bahamian capital and the massive Atlantis resort complex.
Florida Gold Coast
A stunning perspective of the high-rise condos and sandy beaches spanning from Fort Lauderdale to North Miami.
The right side is generally the winner for scenery. For the best photos of the Bahamas, mid-morning flights offer the most vibrant water colors. On descent, watch for the distinct change in water depth at the edge of the continental shelf.

Hispaniola North Coast
Lush green landscapes and the rugged northern coastline of the Dominican Republic shortly after takeoff.
Great Bahama Bank
Observe the striking contrast between the deep blue Atlantic and the shallow, neon-blue waters of the bank.
Andros Island
The largest Bahamian island, known for its dense mangroves and the mysterious blue holes visible from altitude.
Miami Port & Skyline
A close-up view of the cruise ship terminal and the towering skyscrapers of the Brickell financial district.
Book a window seat on the left for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. This side is superior for seeing the urban sprawl of Miami and the Everglades if the flight path loops west before landing.
