A great stop along CA 1 (Pacific Coast Highway) where visitors can walk among the Navy missiles developed at Point Mugu since the 1950s, plus a few aircraft. The location is free to visit and is home to plenty of parking. There is also a small picnic area at the site. It's also a great stop to see the occasional military aircraft arrive at the base.
