Koro Airport serves as Fiji’s main gateway on Koro Island in the Yasawa archipelago. The airport provides regular flights from Nadi and Suva, connecting travelers to this remote part of Oceania. Its short runway accommodates small planes that land on a strip built along the coast, offering views of turquoise waters and lush hillsides. Visitors can step off the plane directly into village life where locals welcome guests with traditional kava ceremonies. The airport’s simple layout makes it easy to move between aircraft and island transport while experiencing authentic Fijian hospitality.
