Small regional airstrip serving Bridport on Tasmania's northeast coast.

Location
Bridport, Australia
Bridport Airport (ICAO: YBDP) is a small general aviation aerodrome located near the township of Bridport in northeastern Tasmania, Australia. It serves light aircraft operations and provides limited scheduled regional air access to the area. The aerodrome is situated close to the Tamar Valley wine region and the popular Barnbougle golf resort, making it a convenient access point for visitors to the region. Its facilities are basic, reflecting its status as a rural general aviation strip rather than a major commercial airport.
