The airport resides at an elevation of 6 ft (1.8 m) above mean sea level. It has one runway designated 09/27 with an asphalt surface measuring 1,523 m × 30 m (4,997 ft × 98 ft). As of December 2009, the old runway is being converted to a taxiway as the new 6,100 ft (1,859 m) runway has opened. According to the Abaconian newspaper, the government is looking at the construction of a new terminal at Marsh Harbour to replace the current terminal, which is too small for the number of operators at that facility.
