NAS Oceana Rwy 23L, Viewing Spot

This is a great place to stop and kill a little time while having various aircraft pass right overhead when coming in to NAS Oceana for landings. I highly recommend checking it out if you're in the area and are into this sort of thing.

Bring binoculars or a zoom lens and some earplugs. Nice view on the F18s departing.

A very quiet pull off next to a recycling center. Is directly off the end of runway 5 and a lousy aircraft to come directly overhead. Truly gives new meaning to hornets nest when they are blasting overhead to the deafening roar. Also saw some f-35s, and possibly a Poseidon. Good crowd there, people were very friendly. Quick easy trip, and if you download an ATC app you can listen to the tower giving approach clearances and departures.

This place is absolutely fantastic. The majesty of the aircraft they bring in and out of this place are simply breathtaking. It really gives you a small taste of some of the might of our great nations military. Mainly saw F18 super hornets, but also saw a T45 Goshawk trainer. When the planes are landing on runway 23L or 23R the approach is right over your head giving you a very up close look at them.

Nice spot to view planes. Bring a picnic and cheap date night!

Sat here for a while watching the jets take off and land. Easy to find place and the jets come by low.

Had a great time video taping and taking pictures of the Jets taking off. it was a lot of fun and I recommend it to anyone who wants to have a couple hours a good time with their family. we not only were able to watch the Jets land we were even able to watch the Jets take off from a distance.

Went there a few times, kept missing the real close take offs , got tired of sitting in car , got out & walked around to stretch legs but the grass needed mowed like 6 months ago- could install benches? Or take care of area better ? Would be way nicer if they did

Get place to watch your tax dollars at work!

There's literally nothing here but a parking lot, so plan to bring everything with you. Sounds like freedom.
