Gibraltar Airport (Spain)
Oddly enough, this airport is considered one of the most complicated in the world. This airport is located on the rock that gives it its name, right in the same urban area. Only a traffic light and a fence are in charge of stopping the traffic of land vehicles to give free rein to the planes that take off or land on the rock. Surprising right?

Furthermore Funchal Airport (Now known as Cristiano Ronaldo Airport) is surrounded by water. On the internet you can find impressive videos of the landings at this airport.
Barra Airport, Scotland
This small airport in Scotland is curious because of the location of its runway. Nothing more and nothing less than on a beach on the island of Barra. The beach has three runways, but the pilots must be very well prepared because their landing and the arrival and departure times will depend on the rise and fall of the tides.
