Cliffside Airdock is the first area that Samus Aran sets foot on Bryyo in the Bryyo Cliffside. True to its name, the Cliffside Airdock consists of a landing pad for Samus's Gunship to land on, overlooking a large canyon. The landing pad is connected by a stone bridge to a wide area, with unfinished Mogenar-Class War Golems on either side of the open entrance. The natural flora and fauna here consist of Bryyo Bees, Bryyo's large thorn plants, Kashh Plants, as well as a few toxic Spaikk bushes. On Samus's first visit, a Reptilicus Hunter can briefly be glimpsed watching her from a ledge above the Airdock's only door, but quickly departs.
