Akashi Kaikyo Bridge
A stunning aerial view of the world's longest suspension bridge connecting Kobe to Awaji Island.
Awaji Island
Observe the northern tip of the island and the swirling currents of the Naruto Strait in the distance.
Mount Daisen
Known as the 'Mount Fuji of Western Japan,' this massive volcanic peak dominates the landscape during descent.
Nakaumi Lagoon
A large brackish lagoon with unique patterns of reclaimed land visible just before landing.
Sit on the left for the most iconic landmarks. Early morning flights provide the best lighting for Mount Daisen, as the sun illuminates its eastern and northern faces. In winter, the snow-covered peak is a must-see. Watch for the bridge within the first 5 minutes of takeoff.
