While we recommend flying into the San Diego International Airport, there are a lot of different options in Southern California that might meet your needs.

One thing to keep in mind is all airports aside from San Diego International Airport will require you to drive on I-5 past Camp Pendleton, which does sometimes have some significant traffic that causes serious delays up to 1-2 hours.

San Diego International Airport in San Diego, CA: 34.1 miles south of Leo Carrillo Historic Park

John Wayne Airport in Santa Ana, CA: 60 miles north of Leo Carrillo Historic Park

Long Beach Airport in Long Beach, CA: 80.2 miles north of Leo Carrillo Historic Park

Los Angeles International Airport: 99.8 miles north of Leo Carrillo Historic Park *Do not recommend unless you really want to feel like Miley. It might appear to be more affordable, but it is hard to navigate and a bit of a hassle.*
