Orcas Island Airport Guide
Orcas Island Airport is a public airport on Orcas Island in the San Juan Islands of Washington. It sits about 1.9 km north of the centre of Eastsound, the island's main village, and is owned by the Port of Orcas. A board of five elected commissioners governs the port, and port staff work on site daily.
The airport has one asphalt runway, 16/34, measuring 2,900 by 60 feet. The runway was paved in 1986 and is being resurfaced with a new layer of asphalt to the same dimensions under the Port's "Better, Not Bigger" project. Kenmore Air flies year-round between Eastsound and Seattle's Boeing Field, a trip of about 40 minutes. San Juan Airlines links the island with Anacortes, Bellingham, Friday Harbor and Roche Harbor.
The airport recorded 41,800 aircraft operations in 2014, about 114 a day. General aviation made up roughly 79% of them, commercial flights 16% and air taxi 5%. The field had 74 based aircraft in July 2017.
