Best place to fly to for weekend getaway, or random getaway. Good food, lots of fun,nice people, lots of smiling faces, museum,and more..Definitely worth checking it out!!!
To observe flying planes, descending and taking off was an inspiring experience for us.
Love this airport, been coming here ever since I was little, I love the observation deck and the tables so you can eat food while watching the planes take off and land.I’m so sad it will be gone in a few years
No 100LL, or 100UL, 94UL is useless. You have to give all your personal info to get a gate code to exit and come back in. The staff is amazing here, the people are great. Pilots are as considerate of neighbors as possible. FU Santa Monica city council and your plans to close SMO and the shortened runway with the refusal to sell 100LL. Voters please keep this place of history alive!
Have been coming here to see the airplanes land for about 12 years. It is quiet and just a great place to hang out and have a snack while you watch the planes. There’s an upper deck for better viewing or picnic tables on the lower deck. You don’t see as many jets as you used to because of neighbors complaints I think. Too bad those were great to see. There’s soccer fields in the area and an empty lot for other activities. It used to be a airplane parking lot but the neighbors complained and so it is now just empty for recreational use. I don’t think people know that because it’s always empty. But you can google the rules. Back to the airport… the cops patrolling are nice and will give kids paper gliders if they have any with them. There is a public bathroom and it’s very clean. So come and enjoy the view before this airport is closed which I believe is the plan in the coming years. This place is also great at night time with all the lights. The kids just love it. Bring your lunch, a refreshment (non alcoholic) and have a great day.
Great airport for training. Did my private pilot certificate here with Santa Monica Flyers and really appreciated the convenient location, busy airspace (really makes you a better pilot) and central location in SoCal. Really hope the city doesn’t shut it down at the end of 2028 and realizes the value this airport provides to the community. When eVTOL (electric vertical takeoff and landing) aircraft become more mainstream, this airport will be a great hub for travelers of all kinds. And the noise will only continue to go down as more electric aircraft become available for training. KSMO <3
Great place to come and watch the planes take off if you can find the elevator to get up to the third floor.
I have included pictures of the elevator so you know what and where to find it
