Witham Field

Witham Field in Stuart serves Martin County and the Treasure Coast, the quieter stretch of coast north of the Palm Beaches. It's a general- and business-aviation field with no scheduled airlines — a convenient, low-key gateway for travelers heading to Stuart, Jupiter Island, and the surrounding communities.

Who flies here

SUA is business and general aviation, from light aircraft to the jets serving the Treasure Coast's residential and seasonal traffic. For charter it's the natural field for anyone bound for Martin County without backtracking from Palm Beach.

On the field

As of mid-2026 the FBOs at Witham Field are Atlantic Aviation and APP Jet Center, on this county-owned field with its own control tower.

A bit of history

Martin County built the field during World War II and named it for Paul "Homer" Witham, the first Naval aviator from Stuart to die in the war; the Navy ran it as a training field, and Grumman later leased acreage for aircraft manufacturing and flight test before the land returned to the county.

FBO and history details were last verified mid-2026 against the airport's and operators' own published information; tenants and amenities change, so confirm the departure terminal with your operator.
