Watsonville’s RNAV (GPS), VOR and localiser procedures all serve a single runway end. That gives three distinct approach methods, but no published instrument procedure to the opposite end or either end of the second runway. The two runways are relatively close in length, with only 504 ft between them, while the airport diagram clarifies their layout alongside the two helipads.
Nearby procedure coverage varies sharply. Salinas and Monterey have the broadest chart sets, both exceeding Watsonville’s total, while San Martin has only three charts; Marina and Hollister are only slightly less limited. The San Francisco Sectional supplies the wider VFR context beyond the airport diagram and terminal procedures.

Every published approach serves one runway end. There is no instrument procedure to the reciprocal direction, so an arrival in instrument conditions commits to that single approach direction regardless of the wind.
No — Watsonville Muni has no control tower. Traffic co-ordinates on a common frequency rather than with a controller, which is listed in the frequencies table on this page.
4, which is why the chart set is as large as it is — each runway end that supports an instrument approach needs its own plates. The runway diagram on this page shows the layout to scale.
