Kitoi Bay Seaplane Base (IATA: KKB) is a remote public seaplane facility on Afognak Island in Alaska’s Kodiak Archipelago. It provides floatplane access to Kitoi Bay and nearby fisheries, hatchery, and research operations, with no road link to the rest of the island or mainland. The base is a seasonal lifeline for researchers, hatchery staff, and subsistence users.
💡 Local Tip
Frequent visitors watch the tide: at low water, some floatplane docks and beach loading spots become muddy or unusable, so ask your pilot to time arrivals around a favorable tide.
🚖 Getting There
Most trips begin with a commercial flight to Kodiak (ADQ), followed by a floatplane charter to Kitoi Bay; book the charter in advance and confirm weight limits. There is no road or ferry service to the bay, so all ground connections must be arranged through your lodge, hatchery, or air taxi. Weather and tides can delay departures, so allow extra time on both ends of your trip.
