About Torres Airstrip
Torres Airstrip is a small domestic airfield serving the Torres Islands, the northernmost island group in Vanuatu. Located on Linua Island, just north of Lo (Loh) Island in Torba Province, it provides an essential air link for a remote and sparsely populated part of the country where sea and air travel are the main connections to the rest of Vanuatu.
The airfield has a single grass runway and basic passenger facilities rather than a conventional terminal complex. Air Vanuatu operates domestic services between Torres and Sola on Vanua Lava, about 116 km to the south, which is the main onward connection point for Torba Province.
Because the airstrip sits on a small island with no road network, travellers continue from the airfield by foot, local boat, or pre-arranged transport to nearby villages on Linua and Lo. Visitors should confirm flights and local transport in advance, as services are limited and depend on weather and demand.
Despite its simple facilities, Torres Airstrip plays an important role as a lifeline for the Torres Islands, supporting passenger travel, supplies, and access to services across this remote northern corner of Vanuatu.
