Bella Bella (Campbell Island) Airport is located 1NM northwest of Bella Bella on Campbell Island. British Columbia, Canada. The airport is connected by paved road to the village of Bella Bella, and forms a hub of sorts for the Central Coast, with flights linking to Klemtu, Port Hardy, and Vancouver with additional flights during the summer servicing tourist and commercial operations in the area.

Considered a halfway point for small aircraft flying from Seattle, Washington, to Alaska, this airport offers a rest and refuel point for many pilots. GPS and NDB approaches are available. Only daylight operations are allowed.
