Remote coral atoll gateway in the Tuamotu Archipelago.

Location
Anaa, French Polynesia
Anaa Airport (IATA: AAA, ICAO: NTGA) serves the atoll of Anaa in the Tuamotu Archipelago of French Polynesia. It is a small domestic airport providing the primary air link between this isolated coral atoll and the rest of French Polynesia, most notably Papeete on the island of Tahiti. The airport operates with a single unpaved or lightly paved airstrip suitable for small turboprop aircraft. Air Tahiti, the main domestic carrier of French Polynesia, provides scheduled service connecting Anaa to Papeete and other islands in the archipelago. Given Anaa's remote location and very small resident population, the airport sees limited traffic and lacks significant commercial infrastructure. It remains essential for the community as the fastest means of reaching medical facilities, supplies, and the broader Polynesian network.
Terminals
The airport has a single basic terminal building with minimal passenger amenities suited to its low traffic volume.
Getting to & from
Ground transport on Anaa is extremely limited, with the small atoll community reachable primarily by foot or local vehicle from the airstrip.
Airlines here
Air Tahiti operates scheduled turboprop service connecting Anaa to Papeete (Faa'a International Airport) and other Tuamotu atolls.

A remote coral atoll gateway deep in the heart of French Polynesia

Anaa Airport serves the small atoll of Anaa in the Tuamotu Archipelago of French Polynesia, one of the more historically significant atolls in the region known for its pearl farming and traditional culture. The airport provides a vital air link for this isolated community, connecting it to Papeete and other Tuamotu islands via small regional aircraft. It plays an essential role in sustaining the livelihoods of residents who depend on air transport for supplies, medical access, and travel.

Terminals
  • Main Terminal — A single small open-air terminal building handling all arrivals and departures for the island's limited scheduled and charter flights.
Ground Transport
  • Private vehicle pickup arranged by local guesthouses
  • Walking to nearby village for short distances
Nearby Hotels
  • Local family-run pensions (guesthouses) in Anaa village
Dining

There are no formal dining facilities inside the airport terminal. Visitors should arrange meals through their guesthouse hosts, as local family pensions typically provide home-cooked Polynesian meals. Basic supplies may be found in the small village store near the airstrip.

Traveller Tips
  • Book accommodation in advance as pension options are very limited on this remote atoll.
  • Air Tahiti operates infrequent scheduled flights from Papeete; confirm schedules well ahead of travel.
  • Bring sufficient cash as there are no ATMs or banking facilities on the atoll.
  • Pack insect repellent and reef-safe sunscreen, as facilities and shops on the island are minimal.
