Remote atoll airstrip serving the Tuamotu Archipelago.

Location

Auorotini, French Polynesia

Marutea Airport is a small airstrip located on Marutea Sud, a remote atoll in the Tuamotu Archipelago of French Polynesia. It serves the tiny local population of Auorotini and provides the primary means of access to this isolated coral atoll in the South Pacific Ocean. The airport is a basic facility typical of remote Tuamotu atolls, with no significant terminal infrastructure. Air service connects Marutea Sud to Papeete and other islands in French Polynesia, offering residents and occasional visitors their only practical link to the outside world.

Getting to & from

Ground transport on the atoll is extremely limited, with no formal public transit; the airstrip is accessible only by foot or local vehicle.
