Like many other airports we also have locations near the runway for aircraft photography. The biggest disadvantage is that airport security will send you away when they see you as it is near the runway. Another disadvantage is the road that takes you there. The road is unpaved and made of what used to be corals cliffs. But once you have reached the beginning of the runway, the road is made of sand which is much better. Here you can stop on the side of the road for overflying aircraft. Even so, if you are lucky you can take very nice photos from this location (beginning of the runway). So it is preferred that you know when the aircraft come in when photographing from this location as it will allow you to photograph and go away afterwards. I would recommend not to hang out there too long as it is also a location where usually nobody drives, so if something happens to your car, you are on your own. | Like many other airports we also have locations near the runway for aircraft photography.

The advantage from this location is that you don't necessarily need a 200-300mm lense as aircraft fly right over your head.
