New Bight Airport
New Bight Airport, coded TBI, serves Cat Island in the Bahamas, a quiet and less-developed island known for its pink-sand beaches, colonial ruins, and Mount Alvernia, the highest point in the entire Bahamian archipelago. The airport handles small aircraft flights connecting Cat Island to Nassau, catering primarily to tourists seeking a low-key alternative to the busier Bahamian tourist hubs. TBI's modest single runway and small terminal reflect the island's limited population and tourism infrastructure. Visitors arriving at New Bight often continue on to fishing lodges, historic settlements, and the hermitage atop Mount Alvernia. Cat Island's slower pace and natural beauty make TBI an entry point favored by travelers seeking authentic Out Island Bahamian culture.
