Layout and practical feel
The airport has a single runway, 10/28, with an asphalt surface and a length of 4,429 ft, which gives a good sense of its scale: functional, efficient, and designed for lighter traffic rather than major international volumes. That usually means less walking and a more direct landside-to-airside flow, which many leisure travellers appreciate. If you are flying onward within the region, it is worth arriving with timing in hand and keeping essentials easily accessible, since smaller island airports often move quickly once check-in or boarding begins.
