About Moorea Temae Airport

Overview

Moorea Temae Airport serves the island of Moorea in French Polynesia, located approximately 17 kilometers northwest of Tahiti. As a medium-sized airport situated at a low elevation of 9 feet mean sea level, it provides critical transportation infrastructure for this Pacific island community. The airport supports regional and tourist air traffic in this scenic part of the South Pacific.

Flying Conditions

Moorea's tropical maritime location typically presents warm and humid meteorological conditions with potential rapid weather changes. The single runway 12/30, measuring 4,035 feet long and surfaced with asphalt, is oriented to accommodate prevailing wind patterns. Pilots should anticipate potential convective activity and localized wind shifts common in island environments.

Notable Features

The airport's geographic position on Moorea island presents unique terrain considerations for approach and departure. Surrounded by mountainous landscape, pilots must maintain heightened terrain awareness during all flight phases. The airport's coordinates (-17.489790, -149.761777) indicate its position in a complex topographical environment requiring precise navigation.

Approach Considerations

Runway 12/30's asphalt surface provides consistent landing conditions across its 4,035-foot length. Given the island's terrain, stabilized approaches and careful energy management are critical for safe operations. Pilots should anticipate potential wind variability and prepare for potential crosswind conditions typical of island airport environments.
