Search flights from UVF to ANU
The Pitons
Dramatic view of the Gros and Petit Pitons rising from the sea immediately after takeoff from UVF.
Mount Pelée
The massive, historically significant volcano on the northern tip of Martinique.
Dominica Wilderness
Rugged, emerald-green peaks of the Morne Diablotins and Morne Trois Pitons National Parks.
Les Saintes
A cluster of picturesque islets off the southern coast of Guadeloupe with turquoise bays.
Soufrière Hills
The active volcano on Montserrat and the eerie, ash-covered remains of the former capital, Plymouth.
Sit on the left (A/B seats) for the best views of the volcanic chain. This route is north-bound, so the afternoon sun will be on your left side; choose a morning flight to avoid glare and see the islands in clear morning light. Keep your camera ready shortly after takeoff to catch the Pitons before the plane reaches cruising altitude.

The white-sand beaches and coral reefs that define the eastern wing of Guadeloupe.
Nelson's Dockyard
A historic Georgian naval dockyard visible as the plane descends into Antigua.
Antigua Reefs
Vibrant coral formations and shallow turquoise waters surrounding the southern coast of Antigua.
The right side (D/F seats) is ideal for spotting the flatter coral islands and the Atlantic coastlines. It is particularly rewarding during the final approach into ANU, where you can see the intricate coastline of Antigua, including English Harbour. In the afternoon, you'll have the advantage of the sun being behind you, which enhances the vibrant blue colors of the ocean reefs.
