Small airstrip serving central Kangaroo Island, South Australia.

Location
Kangaroo Island, Australia
Parndana Airport is a small general aviation airstrip located near the township of Parndana in the central interior of Kangaroo Island, South Australia. It serves as a local facility for light aircraft operations and provides an access point to this part of the island away from the main Kingscote Airport. The airport has limited infrastructure and does not operate scheduled commercial passenger services. It primarily supports private, agricultural, and charter flight operations relevant to the rural communities and agricultural activities in the region. Kangaroo Island, situated off the Fleurieu Peninsula in South Australia, is known for its wildlife, tourism, and farming industries. Parndana itself is a small inland town, and the airstrip reflects the modest aviation needs of this rural locality.
