There is a small municipal airport in close vicinity. Our visitors commented on how much they loved to watch the cute small planes take off while sitting on the lanai. But you can not hear the planes inside, which is nice. The airport grounds are used commonly for local festivals, like the famous Sharks Tooth Festival, Wine for The Cure festival, BBQ Bash, Italian Feast and Carnival, and many others.
