About Dillon's Bay Airport
Located on Erromango island in Vanuatu's Taféa Province, this small domestic airfield serves Dillon's Bay and the surrounding coastal villages. It is one of two airfields on the island, together with Ipota Airport in the east.
The airfield sits at an elevation of about 164 metres and has a single 660-metre runway suited to small aircraft operating domestic island routes. It functions as a local connection point for Erromango, linking the island with other parts of Vanuatu.
Dillon's Bay village is a short drive from the airfield, while Port Vila, the national capital on Éfaté, lies roughly 139 km to the northwest and is reached by small aircraft rather than by road.
Passenger facilities are limited to a small terminal with basic waiting and baggage areas, so travellers should plan ahead for food, cash and onward transport. Its compact size keeps arrivals and departures straightforward for those exploring Erromango's coastline, forests and villages.
