PPQ redirects here. See also: Parts-per notationParaparaumu Airport (IATA: PPQ, ICAO: NZPP) is on the Kapiti Coast of New Zealand's North Island. Paraparaumu Beach is to the west and north, Paraparaumu to the east, and Raumati Beach to the south. The Wharemauku Stream flows through part of the airport's land.

Originally government-owned, the airport was the greater Wellington region's main airport until Wellington International Airport opened in 1959. It was privatised in 1995.
