Island gateway serving remote Okushiri in the Sea of Japan.

Location
Okushiri Island, Japan
Okushiri Airport is a small regional airport located on Okushiri Island, a remote island in Hokkaido Prefecture off the western coast of Japan in the Sea of Japan. The airport primarily serves as a vital lifeline connection for the island's residents, providing air links to the mainland when sea ferry services may be disrupted. The airport handles limited scheduled passenger traffic and is operated to support the small island community of Okushiri. The island is perhaps best known internationally for the devastating 1993 Hokkaido Nansei-Oki earthquake and resulting tsunami that caused significant damage to the island. Due to its remote location and small population base, the airport sees modest passenger volumes and operates with basic facilities suited to its regional role.
Terminals
The airport operates a single small terminal building with basic passenger amenities befitting its regional status.
Getting to & from
Ground transport on the island is limited, with taxi services and rental cars available for travel from the airport to the main town of Okushiri.
Airlines here
Air Hokkaido has historically operated services connecting Okushiri to Hakodate and other Hokkaido destinations.
