Gateway to Maré, the Loyalty Islands' coral gem.
Location
Maré, New Caledonia
Maré Airport (IATA: MEE, ICAO: NWWR) serves the island of Maré, one of the Loyalty Islands of New Caledonia, a French special collectivity in the South Pacific. The airport provides essential air connectivity for the island's residents and visitors, linking Maré to Nouméa and other islands in the archipelago.
The airport operates with a single short runway suited to smaller regional turboprop aircraft. It plays a vital role in the daily life of the island's predominantly Kanak population, as maritime transport alternatives are limited and time-consuming.
Air Calédonie is the primary carrier operating scheduled services to and from Maré Airport, connecting the island to La Tontouta International Airport and Magenta Airport in Nouméa, as well as to other Loyalty Islands destinations.
Terminals
The airport features a small, single terminal building suited to low passenger volumes typical of a remote island destination.
Getting to & from
Ground transport on Maré is limited, with taxis and rental vehicles available for travel to nearby villages and accommodations.
