Kauaroa Bay Heliport is a small helicopter landing site at Poukaraka Flats on the West Coast of New Zealand's South Island. It offers two reciprocal hard-surfaced landing directions and sits at sea level, making it a niche waypoint for helicopter operations in a remote coastal setting.
Kauaroa Bay Heliport is a helicopter facility located at Poukaraka Flats on the West Coast of New Zealand. It is a modest, remote landing site rather than a fixed-wing aerodrome, and its two paired hard-surfaced runway directions suggest it is used primarily to support helicopter operations in an isolated coastal area, which may appeal to simulator pilots seeking an off-the-beaten-path destination.
The heliport lies at Poukaraka Flats in the West Coast region of New Zealand's South Island, at coordinates -43.9974, 168.661. No information is available on the class of airspace overlying the site or on nearby controlled airspace and aerodromes.
The heliport has one physical runway aligned 10/28, each direction measuring 1222 feet in length with a hard surface. There is no ILS available at the field.
No communications frequencies are published for Kauaroa Bay Heliport, and there is no known radio callsign, air-ground service, or navaid associated with the site.
