Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 25, 2025
Closure Date

Approximately 2018-2019. An exact official closure date is not widely publicized, but operational activity, online marketing, and flight tracking ceased around this period. Satellite imagery confirms the site's redevelopment began shortly after.

Reason for Closure

The primary reason for the closure was rapid urban development and land rezoning. The heliport was located on prime coastal real estate within the popular Meigui Haian (Rose Coast) tourist area. As Shenzhen's Dapeng Peninsula developed, the land became more valuable for tourism expansion and public recreational space. The heliport's operations were incompatible with the large-scale redevelopment of the resort area. Contributing factors likely included increasing noise sensitivity as more hotels and residential buildings were constructed nearby.

Current Status

The heliport is permanently closed and has been completely demolished. An analysis of current satellite imagery shows that the site has been fully redeveloped and integrated into the surrounding Meigui Haian Cultural and Tourism Resort. The former location of the helipad and hangar is now a landscaped public plaza and park area, used by tourists visiting the Rose Coast.

Historical Significance

The Meigui Haian Pengxiang Helicopter Base was operated by Shenzhen Pengxiang General Aviation Co., Ltd. (深圳鹏翔通用航空公司). Its main function was to support the burgeoning low-altitude tourism industry in Shenzhen. Key operations included:
- **Aerial Sightseeing:** Providing helicopter tours for tourists over the scenic Dapeng Peninsula, including the Meigui Haian (Rose Coast), beaches, and coastline. This was particularly popular for wedding photography packages and luxury tourism.
- **Private Charters:** Serving as a base for private helicopter charters and business travel within the Pearl River Delta region.
- **General Aviation Hub:** It was a small but significant general aviation facility in eastern Shenzhen, demonstrating the viability of helicopter tourism in the region before the land was repurposed.

Reopening Prospects

None. The physical infrastructure of the heliport has been removed, and the land has been permanently repurposed for public and commercial tourism use. There are no plans or possibilities for reopening the helicopter base at this specific location (CN-0118). Any future helicopter services in the area would require the construction of a new facility at a different location.
