It’s no secret that Nevada is like Mecca for alien enthusiasts. Not only are we home to the famous Area 51, but our state also boasts an abundance of wacky attractions like restaurants, hotels, and stores that all pay homage to aliens in some way. In fact, there’s one store that goes all out when it comes to offering all-things-extraterrestrial. The Flying Saucer is an alien-themed store located in the heart of America’s Alien Country, and it’s definitely worth seeing for yourself if you have any interest in little green men from outer space!
Everybody has heard of Area 51, but did you know that Nevada is home to an Area 52? Hiding in Boulder City is an alien-themed store named Flying Saucer Area 52, and it's just as wacky as it sounds.
This store is not messing around when it comes to aliens. It's here you'll find the largest selection of alien-themed gifts, souvenirs, and collectibles in all of Nevada. Considering we live in the most alien obsessed state, this is definitely an impressive feat!
You'll be downright mesmerized by just how much weird merchandise there is to look at it in this funky gift shop. They boast everything from remote control flying saucers to alien t-shirts and accessories.
Whether you believe in the existence of extraterrestrials or not, you're bound to be wholly entertained when perusing this fun little shop. Interestingly enough, they even sell beer and wine. However, the Alien Tequila is the most popular!
This place is definitely eccentric (to say the least), but at the heart of it is a true passion for UFOs and what they represent. First opened in 2011, the store was started by an avid alien enthusiast named Kae Pohe. Whether you're stopping by for a quick photo-op or to pick up a quirky gift, every visit to this store is a memorable one.
Additionally, The Flying Saucer does sell a few non-alien related items. Here you'll also find souvenirs and items for Hoover Dam, Boulder City, and even a Star Wars toy or two. You simply never know what you'll come across when you visit this unique shop.
At first, The Flying Saucer may seem like your typical tourist trap. However, it's places like this that always leave the biggest impressions. It's weird but it's also SO Nevada, and that's just what we love about it.
