Wairoa Airport is a small regional aerodrome located near the town of Wairoa in the Hawke's Bay region of New Zealand's North Island. It serves general aviation and occasional charter or scheduled regional flights, providing air access to a relatively remote rural community. The airport is a basic facility with limited infrastructure, reflecting the small population and low traffic volumes of the area. It is managed at a local government level and primarily supports agricultural aviation, private flying, and emergency services operations. Wairoa's geographic isolation, nestled between the Hawke's Bay coast and the Urewera ranges, makes the airport a practical asset for the district despite its modest size and infrequent scheduled services.
