Enjoy the outdoors at Ohio River and Ohio River Valley, or check out the area's cultural spots like Riverbend Music Center.
How can I get to California and get around on a budget?
Scoping out the transportation options in California is a smart way to keep your trip affordable. The nearest airport is 15.6 mi (25 km) away from the centre in Cincinnati, OH (LUK-Cincinnati Municipal - Lunken Field). However, if that doesn't suit your budget, you can book a flight to Cincinnati-Northern Kentucky Int'l Airport (CVG), located 23.2 mi (37.3 km) away. California may not have many public transport choices so renting a car could be an economical alternative to explore the area.
