About Rum Cay International Airport

Rum Cay International Airport is the small air gateway to Rum Cay, one of the more remote islands in the central Bahamas. It primarily serves domestic and charter flights linking the island with Nassau and other Bahamian destinations.

The airport lies about 3 km north of Port Nelson, Rum Cay's main settlement, and operates with a single asphalt runway, designated 09/27 and measuring roughly 1,362 metres. A compact single-terminal building handles the island's low-volume passenger traffic.

As a small island airport, its services and ground transportation options are limited. Taxis, hotel transfers and private vehicles are commonly arranged in advance for travel to Port Nelson, beaches, resorts and the marina.

Despite its compact size, the airport remains Rum Cay's principal air link and a practical entry point for visitors staying at the island's resorts, marinas and holiday properties.
