Hyder Seaplane Base

Hyder Seaplane Base is a state owned, public use seaplane base located one nautical mile (2 km) southeast of the central business district of Hyder, a community in the Prince of Wales-Hyder Census Area of the U.S. state of Alaska. It is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a general aviation facility. It shares its airspace with the nearby Stewart Aerodrome and Stewart Water Aerodrome and its water runway in the Portland Canal exists on the Canada–United States border.

Facilities and aircraft
Hyder Seaplane Base has one seaplane landing area designated N/S with a water surface measuring 10,000 by 1,000 feet (3,048 x 305 m). For the 12-month period ending December 31, 2006, the airport had 105 aircraft operations, an average of 8 per month: 95% air taxi and 5% general aviation.

There are two floats for seaplanes, one along the shoreline and another within a protected cove with a concrete launch ramp. The floats are shared with vessels that dock at the base.
