FLOATHAVEN sits in Bellingham, Washington. Field elevation is 307 ft MSL. It has one runway, 12W/30W and it is a 10,000 ft water runway. The field is not towered. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement or local procedures say otherwise. The published runway headings are 127° and 307° magnetic. That matters on a water strip because wind and drift can change your setup fast. The Chart Supplement also says to land and take off in the center of the lake.

This is a water operation with other traffic in the area. Canoe, sailboat, drone and hang glider activity is reported nearby. Avoid flying over noise sensitive areas during takeoff and landing. Approach and departure service is provided by Victoria Terminal on 132.7 and 290.8. The published remarks also say to call prior to arrival to arrange services. There are no on-field FBOs listed. Verify services with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone before you go.
