About Bewani Airport
Bewani Airport is a small domestic aerodrome serving Bewani, a community in West Sepik (Sandaun) Province in north-western Papua New Guinea. It provides an air link for a remote border area and supports local travel and economic activity, including the surrounding palm oil industry.
The airport has a single runway, designated 14/32, with a gravel surface of about 762 metres. Its compact terminal and apron facilities are suited to light aircraft and small regional operations rather than large commercial traffic.
Bewani Airport lies close to the Indonesian border and is connected by road to Vanimo, the main regional centre, located roughly 42 km away. This road link makes Vanimo the main onward point for supplies, services and travel connections.
As a small regional gateway, the airport is most useful to travellers with local business, community or logistics needs in the Bewani area and nearby West Sepik destinations.
