Remote island airstrip serving Tamana Atoll, Kiribati.
Location
Tamana Island, Kiribati
Tamana Island Airport is a small, remote airstrip located on Tamana, one of the southernmost atolls in the Gilbert Islands group of Kiribati. It serves as the primary means of air access to this isolated community, which otherwise relies on infrequent inter-island shipping.
The airport handles light aircraft operations connecting Tamana to other islands within Kiribati, including flights through the domestic network centered on South Tarawa. Services are infrequent, reflecting the small population of Tamana and the limited demand for air travel.
Infrastructure at the airport is minimal, consistent with other remote Kiribati island airstrips. There are no significant terminal facilities, and operations depend on coordination with Kiribati's domestic aviation authority.
Terminals
The airport has no formal terminal building, operating as a basic airstrip with minimal ground infrastructure.
Getting to & from
Ground transport on Tamana is extremely limited, with the small atoll community accessible primarily on foot or by bicycle from the airstrip.
Airlines here
Air Kiribati has historically operated domestic services connecting Tamana to other Gilbert Islands destinations.
