Our Recommendation
9.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior panoramic view of the iconic 'Sir Francis Drake Channel' and the chain of islands forming the British Virgin Islands, followed by a spectacular close-up pass of St. Martin before landing in Anguilla.

Right Side Highlights
9.2
💎

The Baths

The massive granite boulders of Virgin Gorda are clearly visible as you fly east along the island chain.

🏴‍☠️

Norman & Peter Islands

View the legendary 'Treasure Island' and the protected bays that are favorites for sailors.

🌋

Mount Scenery

On clear days, the distinct volcanic silhouette of Saba rises sharply from the Caribbean Sea to the south.

✈️

St. Martin Coastline

A breathtakingly close view of the French and Dutch sides of St. Martin, including the lagoon and Marigot.

🏙️

The Valley

Views of the salt ponds and the modest skyline of Anguilla's capital just before touchdown.

The right side is the 'money side' for this route. Request a window seat behind the wing to capture the full arc of the BVI southern islands. Afternoon flights are ideal here as the sun will be behind or above the aircraft, illuminating the vibrant turquoise waters of the Gorda Sound and the St. Martin coastline perfectly.

🏝️

St. John North Shore

Clear views of the world-famous Trunk Bay and Cinnamon Bay as you depart the Virgin Islands.

⛵

Jost Van Dyke

Spot the white sands of White Bay and the tiny, picturesque Sandy Spit just off the coast.

⛰️

Tortola Ridges

Aerial perspective of Mount Sage National Park and the lush green peaks of the BVI's largest island.

🏘️

Road Town Harbor

Watch the bustling yacht activity in the capital of the British Virgin Islands from above.

🌊

Anegada Passage

The deep blue transition between the Virgin Islands plateau and the Leeward Islands bank.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the harsh southern sun glare. You will get a better view of the northern Cays like Guana Island and Great Camanoe. Watch for the turquoise reef systems surrounding Anguilla's West End as the plane begins its final descent into AXA.
