Our Recommendation
8.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior view of the Grand Bahama southern coastline and a dramatic descent directly over the massive cruise ships at Port Everglades and the downtown skyline.

Left Side Highlights
8.8
🏝️

Grand Bahama South Shore

Views of the southern coast of Grand Bahama and the dense pine forests of Lucayan National Park.

🚢

Port Everglades

An aerial perspective of the massive cruise ships and cargo containers at one of the world's busiest ports.

🏙️

Fort Lauderdale Skyline

A clear view of the city's downtown high-rises and luxury condos during the landing sequence.

🚤

Las Olas Canals

The intricate 'Venice of America' waterway system and the sprawling luxury estates of the Las Olas Isles.

Choose the left side for the most iconic approach views of the Florida coast. For the best photography, morning flights are preferred to avoid the harsh afternoon sun glare that hits the southern side of the aircraft.

Right Side Highlights
8.3
🌊

Little Bahama Bank

The stunning transition of vibrant turquoise waters and white sand ripples across the shallow bank.

📉

Gulf Stream Edge

The dramatic color change where the shallow Bahamian bank drops into the deep ink-blue of the Atlantic.

🗼

Hillsboro Lighthouse

The historic black-and-white lighthouse marking the entrance to the scenic Hillsboro Inlet.

🏖️

Pompano Beach

Stunning views of the northern Broward County coastline and the expansive Atlantic beaches.

The right side is excellent for viewing the expansive shallow reefs of the Bahamas. This side is generally better for afternoon flights as the sun will be on the opposite side of the cabin, perfectly illuminating the turquoise waters below.
