Akiak Airport sits in Akiak, Alaska. The field elevation is 39.8 ft MSL. It has one runway, 03/21, which is 3,200 ft long and gravel. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use standard pattern judgment for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The runway headings are magnetic 47° for 03 and 227° for 21. Magnetic variation is 16°.
There are no on-field FBOs listed. Check with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone before arrival if you need services. Published remarks say runway condition is unmonitored, so a visual check before use is smart. The wind indicator flag is also unreliable, so do not lean on it alone.
This is a non-movement area airport. Use CTAF for all operations. Depart before taxiing on the runway. Arrive within 10 NM and leave the runway as required. Runway 03 and runway 21 both have cones and reflective threshold markers. Medium intensity runway lights on 03/21 are activated by CTAF. A weather camera is available online for a quick look before you launch.
