About Williams Harbour Airport
Williams Harbour Airport (YWM) is a small airstrip on William's Harbour island, located off the south coast of Labrador in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. It once provided a basic air link for the remote fishing community, but the settlement was resettled in 2017 and the airport has since been abandoned.
The site has a single gravel runway, oriented roughly 14/32, and no passenger terminal building. With no permanent residents remaining and no scheduled flights, the airstrip is no longer used for regular commercial passenger services.
William's Harbour is reachable mainly by boat, and there is no road connecting the island to the mainland Labrador highway network. The nearest larger communities, such as Mary's Harbour and Port Hope Simpson, are reached by water or, from Mary's Harbour, by road on the mainland.
Travelers should treat Williams Harbour Airport as a closed facility with no check-in, security, arrivals, rental or passenger amenities. Anyone visiting the area needs to plan onward travel by boat or small aircraft well in advance.
