Tanjung Api Airport serves Tojo Una-Una Regency in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia, providing essential air access to one of the country's more isolated coastal districts. The airport supports regional connectivity for local communities, government operations, and visitors drawn to the Togean Islands and Tanjung Api nature reserve. Its small scale reflects the frontier character of this underdeveloped but ecologically rich corner of Sulawesi.
- Main Terminal — A single small domestic terminal handling limited scheduled and charter regional flights.
- Ojek (motorcycle taxi) — primary transport option from the airport to town
- Rental car or local hire vehicles arranged through guesthouses
- Public minibuses (angkot) operating on main routes toward Ampana town
- Penginapan lokal Ampana (local guesthouses in Ampana town)

Travellers should stock up on snacks and water before onward journeys to the Togean Islands.
- Confirm your flight schedule in advance as services to OJU are infrequent and subject to change.
