Description:

A state-owned paved and lighted runway with a crosswind runway, an FAA flight service station, and a seaplane base are available. Cold Bay is a regional transportation center and provides scheduled flights to surrounding communities. The community has a dock but wants to develop a breakwater, boat harbor, and boat launch. Marine cargo services are available monthly from Seattle but not from Anchorage. The state ferry operates bi-monthly from Kodiak between May and October. There are approximately 40 miles of local gravel roads.
