Gornji Humac, Croatia
Brač Airport (IATA: BWK, ICAO: LDSB) is a small regional airport located on the island of Brač in the Dalmatian region of Croatia, near the village of Gornji Humac. It serves as the primary air access point for the island, which is one of the largest and most visited in the Adriatic Sea.
The airport operates primarily as a seasonal facility, handling increased traffic during the summer tourist months when demand from visitors to destinations such as Bol and the famous Zlatni Rat beach surges significantly. It accommodates both scheduled and charter flights connecting the island to European cities.
Due to its island setting and relatively short runway, Brač Airport is limited in the size of aircraft it can handle, making it suitable for smaller regional jets and turboprop aircraft. Ground infrastructure is modest, reflecting the airport's role as a seasonal leisure destination.
Terminals
The airport has a single small terminal building designed to handle the modest passenger volumes typical of a regional island airport.
Getting to & from
Ground transport from the airport to towns such as Bol and Supetar is available via taxi and bus services, with ferry connections also accessible from the island's ports.
Airlines here
Croatia Airlines has historically been among the carriers serving Brač, alongside various charter operators during the summer season.
