Honda Airport

The airport of the Tokyo Skydiving Club

The Tokyo Skydiving Club, contrary to its name, is based in Kawajima Town in Saitama Prefecture. Its about an hour out of Tokyo by car, a bit longer by public transport as buses are infrequent. Its a tiny little airport. Its more of an airfield with a small "airport". And for Tokyo skydiving club users and even those flying privately from the airfield chances are you'll never step into the airport, just the Portacabin at the entrance to the airfield. The airfield is in a very rural area so its a great spot for plane watching. It is also a heliport so you can helicopter watch too. I've more detailed information on my personal blog (linked in my profile on City-cost) for anyone whose interested. Plane watching is free. Skydiving is about 60,000 yen!
