There are no on-field FBOs listed. Check with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone for current services before arrival. Published remarks point to a few things a first-time pilot should not miss. A weather camera is available online through FAA weather cams. The float area can be tricky from the southwest. Watch the right wing near boat float pilings. The float is exposed to southeast, southwest and northwest winds. Boats may be tied to the float. The surface can be slippery when wet. Gulls are also in the area. Swells are likely with southeast, southwest, or northwest winds.
