Alitak (ALZ) sits in Lazy Bay, Alaska. Field elevation is 0 ft MSL. This is a water airport with two runways. The longest is 12W/30W at 6,000 ft. The other is 17W/35W at 4,000 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.8.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published. For a light piston, use the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. With a sea-level field and water operations, keep an eye on wind and swell. The published remarks call out east-west prevailing winds. East winds can bring swells. Bird activity is also noted in the area. There is a gravel beaching area east of the cannery. Dock hazards are mentioned there, so plan your water handling carefully.

No on-field FBOs are listed. Check with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone before arrival if you need current services. A weather camera is available online for a current look at conditions. Limited summer paraglider activity is also published, so expect some extra traffic in season.
