Elizabeth Field Airport (OB8) is a public use airport located on Fishers Island in Suffolk County, NY. Owned by the Town of Southold and managed by the Fishers Island Ferry District, the airport is classified as a general aviation airport. Originally used for military purposes during World War II, the airport now serves as an unmanned field and offers landing fees, tie-down options, and a rolling five-year Airport Capital Improvement Program.
The Fishers Island Ferry District, in collaboration with the Town of Southold, is responsible for managing the airport and ensuring the safety of all users. With trails leading to the beach and ecologically sensitive areas marked with signs, the airport promotes the preservation of the island's fragile ecosystem. Additionally, plans are underway to construct a hangar that will accommodate three planes and offer rental space.
