Gold Beach Muni sits in Gold Beach, Oregon. Field elevation is 20.5 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 16/34 is 3,200 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. The UNICOM is unmonitored.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The on-field FBO is Gold Beach Municipal Airport. It carries AVGAS 100LL. Call (541) 247-6269 before arrival if you need current service details.
A few published remarks matter for planning. Runway lights on 16 and 34 are controlled by CTAF. Runway 16 has a PAPI and runway end identifier lights. Birds are reported on and near the airport. Runway 16 has a displaced threshold issue with trees 4,300 ft from the threshold. Runway 16 is also unusable beyond 1 degree left of centerline. Runway 16 and 34 markings are faded. This is a low-elevation coastal field. The main concerns are runway condition, lighting setup and staying current on the published remarks before you go.
