About Marble Bar Airport
Marble Bar Airport is a small regional aerodrome serving the town of Marble Bar and the surrounding East Pilbara area of Western Australia. Following a comprehensive refurbishment, the upgraded airport was officially opened in April 2024 with a rebuilt runway, taxiway and apron, new approach lighting and perimeter fencing.
Located about 9 km east of Marble Bar town centre, the airport supports charter, private and regional flights and provides an important air link for a remote mining and pastoral region. The single runway is aligned east-west, and the compact terminal building handles passenger arrivals and departures for the limited traffic using the site.
The airport is reached by road from Marble Bar, with onward routes connecting to Port Hedland on the coast. In this remote area, pre-arranged transfers, rental vehicles and group transport are the practical ways to continue a journey after landing.
Passenger facilities are modest, with a basic waiting area for travellers, while services such as fuel, food and accommodation are available in Marble Bar town. As a small but modernised gateway, the airport plays a practical role in connecting the East Pilbara to wider regional and national destinations.
