About Manda Airport
Overview
Manda Airport serves the coastal region of Lamu, Kenya, situated at 20 feet above mean sea level. The airport provides critical transportation infrastructure for the Lamu Archipelago, featuring three runways that support medium-sized aircraft operations. Its strategic coastal location makes it an important regional aviation hub.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect consistently favorable Visual Flight Rules (VFR) conditions 80.5% of the time, with Marginal VFR conditions occurring 19.5% of the observation period. The prevailing southerly winds average 6.3 knots, with temperatures ranging between 25-35°C and excellent average visibility of 10 statute miles. December, November, and October represent the most stable flying months.
Notable Features
The airport features three runways with different surface compositions: two gravel (GRE) runways at 3,054 feet and one asphalt (ASP) runway at 6,561 feet. All runways demonstrate extremely favorable wind alignments, with 100% favorable wind conditions and consistently low average crosswind components between 3.8-4.2 knots. The coastal location likely influences local wind and weather patterns.
Approach Considerations
With multiple runway options and consistent wind patterns, pilots have flexibility in approach and departure strategies. The longest runway (15/33, 6,561 ft ASP) provides the most comprehensive operational capability. Low crosswind components and predictable wind directions contribute to stable approach conditions, particularly during the peak VFR months of October through December.
