Port Reitz is the location of Moi International Airport, the second largest airport in Kenya. The dual-runway airport was originally named Port Reitz Airport.
At the end of the main Port Reitz road is the Port Reitz District Hospital. The hospital operates specialises as a mental institute, a children's hospital and prosthetics centre. A funeral director is located opposite the hospital complex. The road leading to the complex has come under political criticism due to the neglect of upkeep[1].
Port Reitz is reached by matatu from Mombasa island. Although Port Reitz is a matatu terminus, share taxis to Migadini are within walking distance.
