Car
If you are traveling by car, start from the main town of Atauro Island, which is typically found near the ferry landing. Head northeast towards the road leading to Metiaut.

Look for signs directing you to the helipad, as it is a prominent landmark.
Public Transportation
For those using public transportation, you can take a local minibus or shared taxi (known locally as a 'mikrolet') from the main town towards Metiaut. Make sure to confirm with the driver that they will stop near the Helipad in Metiaut. The ride should take around 20-30 minutes, depending on stops.
