Our primary base facility at the Watsonville airport has a full selection of the best tours and entertainment experience available on the north side of the Monterey Bay. From this facility you can enjoy a Whale watching tour, scenic tour, aerobatic airplane ride, beach tour or just relax in our lounge and watch aircraft take-off and land. Here you can stroll around our facility to observe some of our other services in action. You will see students learning to fly helicopters and airplanes and see a helicopter being serviced to name a few. It's always interesting to visit and we enjoy talking with guests, so don't be afraid to ask a few questions and look around while at our Watsonville facility. We look forward to the visit.
