Tiny airstrip serving tranquil Little Cayman island.

Blossom Village, Cayman Islands
Edward Bodden Airfield is a small general aviation airstrip located on Little Cayman, the least populated of the three Cayman Islands. It serves as the primary air access point for the island, which is known for its world-class diving, nature reserves, and remote character.
The airfield handles light aircraft and small turboprop services connecting Little Cayman to Grand Cayman and Cayman Brac. It is named in honor of Edward Bodden, a notable figure in the local community.
