There is relatively good viewing available around the terminal building.  Take a right out of the building and walk towards the old Coast Air hangar.  On the right hand side is a gate that offers a good view across the apron.

Inside the terminal building there are good views airside and landside.  Landside, head towards arrivals and you will come across the baggage belt.  There are a set of double doors behind it out onto the apron.
