Amboy Airfield is an abandoned airport in the area of Amboy, California, which was used primarily during World War II. The exact date of the airport's opening is undetermined even though the earliest reference to the airfield was published on June 5, 1925, in the Oxnard Daily Courier.[1]

Airplanes occasionally fly in.[2]
