Hawke’s Bay Airport, commonly referred to as Napier Airport serves domestic flights to the main centres of Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch as well as a few smaller centres. With prior arrangements, the airport is permitted to allow international flights for aircraft with up to 14 people onboard. The land upon which the airport sits was actually below sea level until the 1931 Hawke’s Bay earthquake raised it.
Directions: Take off from Napier and head north along the coast and highway 2 until highway 5 breaks off from it heading inland to the northwest. Follow Highway 5 through the hills to the grass runway located in Rangitaiki.
