The airport has two runways, the main one is a gravel north/south runway, and there is a smaller east/west grass runway, primarily for ultralight aircraft, and light aircraft in stronger wind conditions.
History
The owners of Barwon Heads Airport have regularly raised their concerns in relation to skydiving being conducted in the vicinity of the airport. Their concerns are that the airport runway is too close to many proposed drop zones that have been suggested. In 2005, a ban was placed on skydiving in the vicinity of the airport. In 2008, airport owners accused the business Skydive City of using an illegal runway 200 m (660 ft) from the airport days after the business was evicted from an airport hangar for failing to pay rent. Airport owners claimed that the illegal runway was compromising the safety of airport users.
