Alliford Bay was a town on Moresby Island on Haida Gwaii. It is 15 kilometers west of Sandspit and is now a terminus for BC Ferries and North Pacific Seaplanes. During the Second World War, the Royal Canadian Air Force flew the PBY-5 Catalina in and out of the air force base located at Alliford Bay. Today all that is left of the base is a red cedar mill and a dry land sort. Several inhabited homes are still at Alliford Bay.
