SURROUNDED BY BLUFFS AND BAY

The Wiarton Keppel International Airport sits at the centre of one of the most beautiful regions in Ontario. Just minutes by air to the world renown Fathom Five National Park on the Bruce Peninsula, nestled among the Niagara Escarpment, adjoining the crystal-clear waters of Georgian Bay, and beneath the stars of this Dark Sky-designated area. It's truly a wondrous site from land, sea and sky.

Bruce and Grey Counties have much to offer, and we're proud to be a gateway to this exceptional area. Throughout our 70+ year history, the airport was owned and operated by municipal government before becoming privately owned. Regardless of the ownership, the airport serves, promotes and supports it's surrounding communities.
