Malindi International Airport (IATA: MYD, ICAO: HKML) is a small regional airport located near the town of Malindi on Kenya's Indian Ocean coast. It serves as an important air link for tourists visiting the Malindi–Watamu area, a popular beach and marine park destination north of Mombasa. The airport handles domestic flights primarily connecting Malindi with Nairobi and Mombasa, and has historically received some charter traffic from European markets, particularly Italian tourists given Malindi's long-standing Italian expatriate community. It is managed by the Kenya Airports Authority (KAA). The facility has a single paved runway and modest terminal infrastructure suited to the relatively low passenger volumes it handles. Its proximity to attractions such as the Malindi Marine National Park and Watamu Marine National Reserve underpins its tourism-driven traffic base.
