Unofficial Spotting Locations
Bayfront Park
Bayfront Park is located at the end of Millbrae Ave. along Bayshore Hwy. It affords good views of all four runways, but it is somewhat distant from 10R/28L and 10L/28R, so you'll need a long lens for photos. 1R/19L and 1R/19R are closer, however a chain link fence was recently built next to the runways that limits photography.
