Tresco Heliport is a grass airfield, 360 metres long and 6 metres ASL. However, for any fixed wing aircraft wanting to visit, please be advised that the effective distance is only 150m East of the road that bisects the airstrip and 100m West of the road. Generally, we would advise a weight limit of 500kg or aircraft with STOL capability.

Tresco Heliport is usually open from 0800 - 1700 Monday to Saturday, from 1st March until 31st October. Our winter hours are available on the AIP. Additional hours can be arranged on request.
From the heliport, onward transport can be arranged to Tresco accommodation or the island's restaurants, Abbey Garden and other facilities. Boat transfers to other islands can also be arranged through Tresco Boats.
