Island gateway to Moorea's tropical paradise.

Location
Moorea-Maiao, French Polynesia
Moorea Temae Airport (IATA: MOZ, ICAO: NTTM) is a small domestic airport serving the island of Moorea in French Polynesia, located near the village of Temae on the northeastern coast of the island. It sits just across the Sea of Moons (Mo'orea Channel) from Tahiti's Faa'a International Airport, making Moorea one of the most accessible outer islands in French Polynesia. The airport primarily handles short inter-island flights connecting Moorea to Papeete on Tahiti, serving the substantial tourist traffic drawn to Moorea's famous lagoons and resorts. Air Tahiti is the dominant carrier operating scheduled services to and from the airport. Due to Moorea's proximity to Tahiti, many visitors also reach the island via high-speed ferry, which is a popular alternative to flying. The airport's infrastructure is modest, reflecting its role as a regional domestic hub rather than an international gateway.
Terminals
The airport has a single small terminal building suited to domestic inter-island traffic with limited passenger facilities.
Getting to & from
Ground transport from the airport includes taxis and rental cars, with no regular public bus service directly serving the terminal.
Airlines here
