Konan Airport (岡南飛行場)

Flow of the course

About this spot

An airfield in Urayasu-minamimachi, Minami Ward, Okayama City, a few minutes south of Urayasu General Park by car. Rather than scheduled jets, the traffic is mostly light aircraft and helicopters, so the planes taking off feel very close. The wide, unobstructed sky and the view of the runway alone make a special sight for children. If you are lucky you will catch the moment of a takeoff or landing, and the big engine noise brings cheers. As a short detour before the water play, it is just the right size.

Tips

There is no fixed flight schedule, so treat whether you see an aircraft as a matter of luck on the day and stop by without expecting too much. Follow the on-site signage regarding where you may enter or observe, and do not park or stop on the road. There is little shade, so be sure to take a hat and drinks with you when you leave the car.

Best time to visit

About 40 minutes. Rather than lingering, enjoy it briefly as a detour before the water play
