Our Location

Hobbies Aloft is located in beautiful Monterey, on California's Central Coast.

Our primary flying field is located on the former Fort Ord, and is operated by the Army's Outdoor Recreation Department of the Presidio of Monterey. A map and driving instructions are available here. Current weather information is also available.

The high dunes along much of Monterey's coast provide a number of locations for flying gliders, as well. Some of these are indicated on our glider site map, but there are many more spots equally well suited to gliders and sailplanes.

Between lessons you'll want to give your mind - and fingers - a break while you take advantage of all that Monterey has to offer. As one of America's top tourist destinations, Monterey has a wealth of activities & sights, along with excellent lodging and dining facilities. The Monterey Peninsula Visitors' & Convention Bureau offers an excellent online guide to the area.
