FAA approval was recently received for the creation of a Sea Lane in the Port Angeles harbor. The FAA has issued the official airport location identification of W66. The Washington Seaplane Pilots Association was instrumental in helping make this happen and can foresee W66 as a popular place to visit.

Currently there is only one seaplane dock space available and that is in the Port Angeles Boat Haven. Many folks are brainstorming ways to install a more suitable facility near City Pier with even others envisioning a commercial service terminal in the future. Stay tuned for future updates on this exciting project.
