Mount Teide
Spain's highest peak dominates the horizon as the plane approaches Tenerife, often rising above a sea of clouds.
Garajonay National Park
The dense, ancient laurel forests of central La Gomera are visible as you pass the island to the north.
Valverde
The hillside capital of El Hierro is visible shortly after takeoff, nestled in the green highlands.
Roques de Salmor
Dramatic basaltic rocks off the coast of El Hierro, famous for their unique giant lizard population.
Choose a window seat forward of the wing for an unobstructed view of Mount Teide. Morning flights are ideal as the sun illuminates the northern slopes of the islands, highlighting the contrast between the volcanic rock and green vegetation.
