Glenforsa Airfield
(Mull Airport , Tobermory Airport)

Located next to the Glenforsa Hotel the northeast of the island of Mull, Argyll and Bute, Glenforsa Airfield is a small airport used by private plane owners and does not offer regular air services to the main Scottish airports. Sometimes referred to as Mull Airport or Tobermory Airport, the field is run by enthusiasts on behalf of Argyll and Bute Council and lies 1½ miles (2 km) east of Salen. The runway is grass and is 780m (2559 feet) in length.

The airfield was built in 1965 by the army (Royal Engineers) to support the cottage hospital in Salen, and medical flights remain an important activity, this being the only fixed-wing airfield on Mull. Glenforsa is the locus of the annual Mull Air Rally.

Glenforsa Airfield has the International Air Transport Association (IATA) location code "ULL".
