Our Recommendation
8.7

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a continuous panorama of the North African coastline, featuring the transition from the Libyan desert to the lush Tunisian Sahel, including major cities and ancient ruins.

Left Side Highlights
8.7
🏜️

Sirt & Sahara Fringe

Aerial view of Gardabya and the arid landscape where the desert meets the Gulf of Sidra.

🏙️

Misrata Coastline

The sprawling urban area of Misrata, Libya's major commercial port and coastal hub.

🏛️

Tripoli & Sabratha

Clear views of the Libyan capital and the nearby UNESCO-listed Roman ruins of Sabratha right on the shore.

🌊

Gulf of Hammamet

The beautiful curve of the Tunisian coast known for its turquoise waters and resort towns.

⛰️

Cape Bon Peninsula

The prominent thumb-shaped landmass that points toward Sicily as the plane turns toward Tunis.

🏘️

Tunis Suburbs

Views of the white-and-blue architecture of Sidi Bou Said and the ruins of ancient Carthage during descent.

Book a window seat on the left for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh southern sun while capturing the best lighting on the Libyan coast. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes after takeoff for the Tripoli skyline and look for the circular Roman theater in Sabratha along the water's edge.

Right Side Highlights
4.2
🌊

Mediterranean Horizon

An uninterrupted view of the deep blue Mediterranean Sea stretching toward Southern Europe.

🚢

Maritime Traffic

Spotting cargo ships and tankers navigating the busy sea lanes between Africa and Italy.

🏝️

Zembra Archipelago

Small, rugged islands located in the Gulf of Tunis visible during the final approach phase.

The right side is best for passengers who prefer a glare-free view of the horizon during morning flights. It offers a more serene, maritime experience but lacks the geographical landmarks found on the landward side. Watch for the Zembra and Zembretta islands as the aircraft maneuvers for landing at TUN.
