Awesome Naval Aviation Monument Park that gives thanks and notice to the Navy Base within the area.

It sits right off the ocean from boardwalk, between hotels and across the road from the main shopping strip. It's a great location to soak up some sun, learn some history, and pay our respects.

Must visit if you're walking...
