About Aerotortuguero Airport

Overview

Aerotortuguero Airport serves the Roxana region in Costa Rica, providing critical aviation access to the northeastern coastal area. Located at 10.420000, -83.609500, this medium-sized airport supports regional transportation needs in a critically important ecological zone near Tortuguero National Park.

Flying Conditions

The airport sits at an elevation of 92 feet above mean sea level, which suggests a relatively low-altitude tropical environment typical of Costa Rica's Caribbean coastal region. Pilots should anticipate potential humidity and variable wind conditions characteristic of coastal tropical zones.

Notable Features

The airport features a single runway (02/20) constructed with asphalt surfacing, measuring 3,118 feet in length. Its geographic positioning near the Caribbean coastline indicates potential terrain considerations including potential marine layer formations and localized weather variations.

Approach Considerations

Runway 02/20's orientation suggests potential crosswind scenarios depending on prevailing wind conditions. With a moderate runway length of 3,118 feet, aircraft performance planning should account for the airport's specific elevation and potential environmental factors affecting takeoff and landing dynamics.
