Mona Airport

Mona Airport is an airstrip on Mona Island (Isla de la Mona), the third largest island of Puerto Rico. Private and commercial flights require a permit for use of the landing strip. The permit can only be acquired through the Puerto Rico Department of Natural and Environmental Resources. The airport is also available to planes for emergency purposes.

Mona Island is a natural reserve and there are no permanent inhabitants. Rangers from the Department of Natural and Environmental Resources rotate residence on the island to manage visitors and take part in research projects.

The runway parallels the island's southwest shore. Approach and departures are over the water. An overrun to the northwest will hit some coral rock outcroppings.

The Mayaguez VOR/DME (Ident: MAZ) is located 45.8 nmi east-northeast of Mona Airport. The Punta Cana VOR/DME (Ident: PNA) is located in the Dominican Republic 39.2 nmi northwest of the airstrip.
