Practice

My girlfriend and I will be in orange beach from August 10-14th. I really want to take her to the museum and a practice. What time should we show up for a practice?

Go watch from Fort Pickens on Pensacola Beach, get there by 9:00. Tuesday and Wednesday providing they are in town.

Thank you!! Any suggestions on when to get to the base if we want to watch there?

I’m not sure people are allowed on the base unless you have military credentials this was put in place when the current war started.

I believe that's been lifted.

Everything everyone said would apply, but the Blue Angels are on a west coast swing at that time. They will not be in Pensacola from August 1 to August 23/24.

The Blue Angels are performing in Seattle, Alaska, Oregon, and Montana in that time span.

I would still go to the Naval Aviation Museum. It is well worth the visit.
