Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The Right Side offers a stunning panorama of the Gulf of Guinea coastline, featuring historical UNESCO World Heritage sites and pristine beaches.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏰

Elmina Castle

A clear view of the historic St. George's Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site standing on the shore.

🏛️

Cape Coast Castle

Another prominent white-washed colonial fort situated directly on the rocky coastline.

🌊

Gulf of Guinea

The vast, deep blue expanse of the Atlantic Ocean stretching to the horizon.

🏖️

Winneba Coastline

Beautiful stretches of sandy beaches and the distinctive Muni-Pomadze Lagoon area.

⚓

James Town Lighthouse

As you approach Accra, look for the iconic red and white lighthouse near the old harbor.

The Right Side is significantly more scenic due to the historic forts and the dramatic meeting of land and sea. For the best experience, book a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the white walls of the castles and the turquoise coastal waters.

Left Side Highlights
6.2
🌳

Coastal Rainforests

Views of the lush tropical vegetation and secondary forests of the Central Region.

🏘️

Kasoa Urban Sprawl

The rapidly expanding residential areas on the western outskirts of the Greater Accra Region.

💧

Densu Delta

The Ramsar site and wetland area providing a crucial habitat for migratory birds near the city.

🏙️

Accra Cityscape

A sprawling view of the capital city's dense residential and commercial neighborhoods.

Choose the left side if you are interested in the geographic transition from rural coastal plains to the dense urban grid of Accra. Afternoon flights provide the best lighting for inland landscape photography without solar glare.
