Margate Airport Guide

Margate Airport is the gateway to the resort community by the same name in South Africa's KwaZulu Natal region. It is a domestic hub with semi-regular flights arriving from Johannesburg. Margate Airport is also a popular charter flight destination.

The main airline at Margate Airport is Airlink, a subsidiary of South African Airways. As South Africa's flagship carrier, this airline is well-connected to the rest of the country. A connecting flight to Johannesburg allows for transport to all major cities in the region. Cheap car hire at Margate Airport is offered by several well-known and local firms.

With car hire at Margate Airport you can enjoy access to the entire coastal region. There are many secluded beaches outside of Margate equipped with parking and picnic facilities. This is especially useful from December to January when the number of tourists in Margate is high.

Margate Airport sits three miles west of the beach with access to Margate's residential neighbourhoods as well as R61, a north-south motorway that connects to Durban and Port Edward. If you have procured car rental in Margate Airport, getting to and from the resorts on the coast is simple and takes less than 10 minutes.

Beyond its role as a hub for holidaymakers, Margate Airport also operates a well-known flight school called Zero Four. They specialise in small aircraft, and pilots-in-training couldn't ask for a better landscape to fly over. There's also a country club north of the airport with a golf course that's open to non-members.
