Naval Air Station Kingsville is located just off Highway 77 and about three miles from downtown Kingsville. Visitors should exit Highway 77 at the Gen. Cavazas Blvd. exit and turn east; the Main Gate entrance to the air station is located about a mile down the road. Be sure to have a copy of your vehicle insurance (current copy), driver's license, and proper registration for your vehicle. If you do not have these items, you will not be allowed entry onto the air station. If you do have these items, present them to the gate sentry and he/she will direct you on how to enter the base.
Please keep in mind that as a matter of security we do conduct random vehicle searches 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year. If you are selected for search, please follow the directions of the gate sentry and comply with the request. The inspection process only takes about 10 minutes providing you have proper paperwork as noted above.
