SLUSVD

Our Recommendation
9.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a world-class view of Saint Lucia's iconic Pitons and the dramatic leeward coastline before arriving at the lush volcanic shores of Saint Vincent.

Right Side Highlights
9.5
⚓

Castries Harbor

Aerial view of the capital city, the busy cruise ship terminal, and the historic Government House.

🚤

Marigot Bay

One of the most beautiful natural harbors in the Caribbean, famous for its narrow entrance and luxury yachts.

🏔️

The Pitons

An unbeatable view of Petit Piton and Gros Piton, the UNESCO World Heritage volcanic spires rising from the sea.

🛶

Soufrière Bay

The turquoise waters and dark volcanic sands surrounding the old colonial capital of Saint Lucia.

🏙️

Kingstown

The 'City of Arches' and the vibrant capital of Saint Vincent visible during the final descent stages.

This is the 'money side' for this flight. Ensure you have your camera ready within the first 10 minutes of takeoff to capture the Pitons. Choose a seat away from the wing for unobstructed views of the coastline. Late afternoon flights provide spectacular golden hour lighting on the cliffs and mountains.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏖️

Vigie Beach

A stunning view of the golden sands immediately adjacent to the runway upon departure from SLU.

⛰️

Mount Gimie

View of the highest peak in Saint Lucia, often shrouded in tropical mist and surrounded by dense rainforest.

🌊

Atlantic Coastline

The rugged windward side of the islands where the deep blue Atlantic waves crash against volcanic cliffs.

🌋

La Soufrière Volcano

The massive active stratovolcano that dominates the northern landscape of Saint Vincent.

Sit on this side for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. This side is better for observing the dense, uninhabited jungle interiors of the island centers. During the approach to SVD, you will get a clear view of the new airport's massive infrastructure against the eastern coastline.
