Gateway to Graciosa, the smallest of the central Azores islands.

Location

Santa Cruz da Graciosa, Portugal

Graciosa Airport (IATA: GRW, ICAO: LPGR) is a small regional airport serving Santa Cruz da Graciosa, the main town on Graciosa Island in the Azores archipelago of Portugal. The airport provides essential air links connecting this relatively remote Atlantic island to other islands in the Azores and to mainland Portugal. The airport operates a modest level of traffic given the island's small resident population of just a few thousand inhabitants. It plays a vital role in the daily connectivity and economic life of the island, supporting both residents and tourism to Graciosa, which is designated a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. SATA Air Açores, the primary regional airline of the Azores, operates scheduled services from Graciosa Airport, linking it to Terceira Island's Lajes Airport and other inter-island destinations within the archipelago.

Terminals

The airport has a single small terminal building suited to the low passenger volumes typical of a remote island airport.

Getting to & from

Taxis and rental cars are the main ground transport options connecting the airport to Santa Cruz da Graciosa and the rest of the island.
