Gatokae Aerodrome guide

Gatokae Aerodrome is a small airstrip on Nggatokae Island in Western Province, Solomon Islands. It sits at the northern tip of the island, south of the village of Sombiro, about 21 metres above sea level, and is also known as Sombiro Airport. Its IATA code is GTA and its ICAO code is AGOK.

The island is an extinct volcano of about 93 square kilometres, rising to Mount Mariu at 887 metres. The British colonial administration built the airstrip after the Second World War, and it is still in use.

The runway is designated 07/25 and is a single unlit gravel strip, listed at roughly 590 metres. Aviation databases give it no scheduled airlines at present, so travellers should confirm any service with Solomon Airlines before planning a trip.
