Which side of the plane to sit from Maroantsetra Airport (Maroantsetra) to Antsirabato Airport (Antalaha)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular vantage point of the Antongil Bay and the rugged, forested coastline of the Masoala Peninsula, featuring a mix of turquoise waters and dense primary rainforest.

Nosy Mangabe
The lush, green silhouette of this sacred island rises out of Antongil Bay shortly after takeoff.
Antongil Bay
Madagascar's largest bay, which serves as a vital breeding ground for Humpback whales between July and September.
Hidden Coves
Isolated white-sand beaches tucked between steep jungle cliffs that are only accessible by boat or multi-day trek.
Coral Reefs
Fringing coral reefs visible through the clear shallow waters along the peninsula's eastern edge.
The right side is superior for coastal photography. If flying between July and September, keep a close watch on the water for the breaching of Humpback whales. Choose a morning flight for the best light on the water; the low sun angle highlights the transition from deep ocean blue to the bright turquoise of the coastal lagoons.

Masoala Rainforest
Uninterrupted views of Madagascar's largest remaining block of primary rainforest, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Antainambalana River Delta
A complex network of silty river channels winding through the tropical landscape near Maroantsetra.
Inland Escarpments
Dramatic mountain ridges rising sharply from the coastal plain, often shrouded in morning mist.
Sit on the left if you prefer looking into the deep, mysterious interior of the Masoala National Park. Morning flights are best to avoid the clouds that often gather over the inland mountains by midday. Look for the distinct change in vegetation as you approach the vanilla-growing regions of Antalaha.
