Matsu Beigan Airport — Matsu (Beigan), Taiwan

Matsu Beigan Airport (MFK) serves Beigan, one of the two main islands in Taiwan's Matsu archipelago, a small chain in the Taiwan Strait much closer to mainland China's Fujian coast than to Taiwan proper. The airport is a lifeline for the island's residents, connecting them to Taipei via short domestic flights, since Beigan's rugged terrain and the strait's rough seas make regular ferry travel less reliable in poor weather. Flights are typically operated with smaller turboprop aircraft suited to the short runway. Matsu itself is known for its Fujianese-style stone villages, wartime military tunnels from the Cold War era, and blue tears bioluminescence phenomenon, making MFK an entry point for a growing niche tourism trade alongside its essential role in daily island logistics.
