Anafi Municipal Airport (Greek: Δημοτικός Αερολιμένας Ανάφης) is an airport currently under construction in the island of Anafi, Greece, in the Cyclades islands region. Located approximately 5 km (3.1 mi) west of the island principal town, the Greek government approved its construction on 2004. The primary goal of the airport is to hasten the transfer of injured or sick patients to surrounding islands where formerly slow passage via ferry were required.[4]
It was expected to be finished by the end of 2023. However, as of November 11, 2024, the airport is still under construction. The mayor of Anafi spoke on the matter, saying "Οι εκτιμήσεις για την ολοκλήρωσή του δεν μπορούν να είναι ασφαλείς, γιατί μιλάμε για ένα σημαντικό έργο." (transl. Estimates for its completion cannot be safe, because we are talking about an important project.)[4]
