About Morondava Airport
Morondava Airport is the main air gateway to Morondava and the Menabe region on Madagascar's west coast. Operated by ADEMA (Aéroports de Madagascar), it provides domestic connections and is the closest airport to the famous Avenue of the Baobabs.
The airport sits about 4.5 km east of the town centre at an elevation of 9 m. It has two asphalt runways and a compact terminal setup handling scheduled domestic services, with regular flights linking Morondava to Antananarivo and Toliara.
From the airport, travellers can reach central Morondava in roughly 10–15 minutes by taxi or private transfer, with road access to hotels, guesthouses and the Avenue of the Baobabs.
Passenger facilities are modest, as is typical of a regional airport. Travellers should expect a simple terminal with essential services rather than large lounges and shopping areas.
