Inside the Lyon Air Museum: planes, cars, bikes and more.

The Skinny

What: The Lyon Air Museum, 19300 Ike Jones Road, Santa Ana, California, 92707, (714) 210-4585. Open from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. every day. Admission is $13, $10 for senior citizens, kids are $6, and children under 5 are free.

How to Get There: It’s a little tricky: Take the 405 Freeway to SR 55 north, exit MacArthur to Fitch to Red Hill Avenue to Ike Jones Road. The museum is tucked away on the northwest side of John Wayne Airport.

Best Kept Secrets: The Atomic Café, only a few hundred feet from the Museum. Try the French toast; you won’t be disappointed. The Lyon Air Museum is available for events (weddings, retirement parties, etc.) and it’s a venue that makes any gathering a life-long memory.

Avoid: Not bringing a camera. The photo ops are incredible.

Don’t Miss: Combining a visit with a ride along the Pacific Coast Highway.
