Location

South Caicos, Turks and Caicos Islands

South Caicos Airport (IATA: XSC, ICAO: MBSC) is a small regional airport located on South Caicos, one of the inhabited islands of the Turks and Caicos Islands in the British Overseas Territory of the same name. It serves as the primary air access point for the island, which is known for its fishing industry and growing ecotourism appeal. The airport handles light inter-island and charter traffic, connecting South Caicos to Providenciales and other nearby islands. Its modest infrastructure reflects the small population and limited commercial demand of the island it serves. South Caicos itself is one of the less developed islands of the Turks and Caicos, and the airport plays a vital role in supporting local residents, fishermen, and visitors seeking an off-the-beaten-path Caribbean experience.

Terminals

The airport has a single small terminal building with basic passenger facilities suited to low-volume inter-island operations.

Getting to & from
