Where to Fly Your Drone (Organized by City and State)

A national directory of the top places to fly a drone in the United States.

On this page, we’ve done our best to lay out the best places to fly a drone in many of the most populated cities across the United States.

While it can be difficult to identify the various local regulations in every city, our goal with this resource is to focus on safe and legal piloting of UAVs that follow the FAA’s guidelines. We provide guidance on regulations to help you stay compliant with both federal and local rules.
