While the airport does not have an official spotting location, there are some fine vantage points to be found along Ninini Point Street, which meanders between and alongside runways 3/21 and 17/35. Most arrivals are on Runway 35, while departures take place on Runway 3. Arguably, the best photos can be taken of arrivals on runway 35 in the afternoon. It is possible to drive along Ninini Point St. past the Kiele Golf Course. Parking is available by the golf courses. One can then backtrack on foot along Ninini Point St. to the section of the road the runs parallel to runway 35. When an arriving aircraft is visible, you can climb up one of the artificial hills along the edge of the golf course, giving you an unobstructed view of aircraft touching down on the runway with the Pacific Ocean as a backdrop. | While the airport does not have an official spotting location, there are some fine vantage points to be found along Ninini Point Street, which meanders between and alongside runways 3/21 and 17/35.
