Arthur's Town Airport
Arthur's Town Airport serves the settlement of Arthur's Town on Cat Island in the Bahamas. The airport sits just 18 feet above sea level, consistent with the low-lying limestone geography typical of the Bahamian archipelago. Two runways accommodate small propeller aircraft operated by regional Bahamian carriers connecting Cat Island to Nassau and other islands in the chain. Given the modest population of northern Cat Island, the airport handles relatively light traffic focused on inter-island travel rather than international arrivals. Ground infrastructure remains basic, typical of airports serving Family Island communities throughout the Bahamas. Most visitors arriving here continue by road or boat to reach smaller settlements elsewhere on Cat Island.
