Brač Airport — Gornji Humac, Croatia

Brač Airport sits near Gornji Humac on the island of Brač, part of Croatia's Split-Dalmatia County along the Adriatic coast. Unusually for a coastal airport, the field rests 1,776 feet above sea level, elevated well above the shoreline in the island's hilly interior. A single runway serves seasonal passenger and charter flights, with traffic climbing sharply during the summer tourist months typical of Croatia's islands. Coded BWK, the airport gives visitors a direct route onto Brač without relying on the ferry connections that link the island to the mainland port of Split. Brač itself is known among Adriatic islands for its rugged limestone terrain, and the airport's elevated inland position reflects the lack of flat coastal land suitable for a runway.
