Blue Angels

Access to the Naval Museum for those visitors NOT in possession of Department of Defense ID is ONLY through NAS West Gate Entrance located at 1878 S Blue Angel Parkway.
There’s nothing quite like watching the Blue Angels, even in practice flights. The skill and courage required to perform aerial maneuvers in tight formations at 400 to 700 mph, all while maintaining as little as 18 inches of separation, is awe-inspiring!
The outside viewing area for the Blue Angels practice is located on the Museum Flight Line north of the Museum. Signs are posted to direct visitors to viewing and parking locations, including limited parking for handicapped visitors.Open bleacher seating is available for seating 1,000 people. Chair service is provided at each practice session, a limited quantity of chairs are available for a fee of $3 per chair good for that dayÕs practice session. Concessions (bottled water, sport drinks, light food and treats) and merchandise are also available. 100% ID check for all visitors 16 years old and over to access the museum flight line to view Blue Angel practice.
