Location

Gizo, Solomon Islands

Nusatupe Airport is a small regional airport located on Nusatupe Island in the Western Province of the Solomon Islands, serving the town of Gizo. Because the airport sits on a separate island from Gizo itself, passengers must travel by boat to reach the main town after landing. The airport handles domestic flights connecting Gizo to Honiara and other points within the Solomon Islands. It plays a vital role in linking the relatively remote Western Province to the rest of the country, given the limited road infrastructure across the island chain. The facility is modest in scale, with basic terminal infrastructure suited to the low passenger volumes typical of a small island destination. It is an important hub for tourism, as Gizo is a popular base for diving and exploration in the Western Province.

Terminals

The airport has a single small terminal building with basic facilities reflecting its regional island status.

Getting to & from
