Sandspit Airport

Sandspit Airport, established in the mid-20th century, is a compact regional airport serving the Haida Gwaii community and visitors to the Gwaii Haanas National Park Reserve. With a single small terminal and a handful of paved runways, it functions as an important local link rather than a major hub, offering connections to Prince Rupert and mainland British Columbia via regional carriers (commonly served by Pacific Coastal and seasonal charter operators). Ground access is straightforward—short drives to Sandspit village and local shuttle or taxi options—while broader links rely on ferries and flights to the mainland. Travelers should expect slightly higher air fares due to remoteness, though on-site fees and parking are modest.
