Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the winding Casamance River estuary, historic islands, and the intricate maze of mangrove channels that define the region's unique geography.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

Casamance River Estuary

The massive mouth of the river where freshwater meets the Atlantic Ocean in a display of colors.

🌿

Mangrove Labyrinths

Stunning geometric patterns created by vast mangrove forests along the river banks.

🏝️

Carabane Island

A historic, car-free island near the river mouth visible during the flight's westward path.

🚤

Fishing Pirogues

Brightly colored traditional Senegalese fishing boats dotting the river and coastline.

This is the 'river side'. For the best photography, choose a seat ahead of the wing to capture the intricate mangrove systems. Late afternoon flights provide a spectacular reflection of the sun on the water as you head west.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🌳

Lower Casamance Forest

Dense tropical canopy and forest patches characteristic of the southern Casamance region.

🛶

Oussouye Creek Systems

Narrow, winding water channels known as bolongs cutting through the lush greenery.

🏖️

Boucotte Coastline

Wide, white sandy beaches and palm groves as the plane prepares for its final descent.

Sit near the window to see the transition from dense inland vegetation to the coastal resort architecture. Morning flights offer the clearest views of the forest floor before the afternoon humidity creates a light haze.
