The iconic maritime gateway where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Mediterranean Sea between Europe and Africa.

πŸ–οΈ

Costa del Sol

The sparkling beaches and coastal resorts of southern Spain's famous sunshine coast.

🌊

Balearic Islands

Clear views of Ibiza, Mallorca, and Menorca floating in the deep blue Mediterranean.

French Riviera

The glitzy coastline of the CΓ΄te d'Azur, including the Gulf of Lion and the surroundings of Marseille.

⛰️

Italian Pre-Alps

Breathtaking views of the southern foothills of the Alps and Lake Como during the final approach into Bergamo.

This is the 'scenic' side for water lovers. Watch for the crossing into the Mediterranean; the contrast between the deep blue sea and the white Spanish coastlines is striking. During the descent into BGY, the right side often gets a spectacular view of the mountains surrounding Bergamo and the nearby Italian lakes.
