Victoria Airport Water Aerodrome (TC LID: CAP5) is a seaplane base located 12 nautical miles (22 km; 14 mi) north northwest of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, adjacent to Victoria International Airport.
The airport is classified as an airport of entry by Nav Canada and is staffed by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA). CBSA officers at this airport can handle general aviation aircraft only, with no more than 15 passengers.[1]
Today, Pat Bay serves as an alternate airport for Harbour Air flights to Victoria Inner Harbour. Charters in and out of Pat Bay are rare, but not out of the question.
