Remote atoll airstrip serving the Tuamotu Archipelago.

Location

Faaite, French Polynesia

Faaite Airport is a small domestic airstrip located on Faaite Atoll in the Tuamotu Archipelago of French Polynesia. It serves as a vital link for the isolated community on the atoll, providing access to Tahiti and neighboring islands. The airport is a simple facility with minimal infrastructure, typical of the remote atolls in the region. Air Tahiti operates occasional scheduled services connecting Faaite to Papeete and other Tuamotu destinations. Given the atoll's tiny population and limited tourism, passenger volumes are very low. The airport plays an essential role in supplying the community with goods, medical access, and connectivity to the wider French Polynesian network.

Terminals

The airport has a single basic terminal building with minimal passenger facilities befitting a remote atoll airstrip.

Getting to & from

Ground transport on the atoll is extremely limited, with travel typically on foot or by small vehicle to the nearby village.
