Tofino/Long Beach Airport, (IATA: YAZ, ICAO: CYAZ), is located 6 NM (11 km; 6.9 mi) southeast of Tofino, British Columbia, Canada.
It is used by private and small commercial planes.[4] Coastal fog is a common morning phenomenon in the summer, complicating access by air until the weather clears. Several IFR approaches are available including GPS and NDB types. This airport is not equipped for night time operations. A golf course is just west of the runway.
