About Rafael Nuñez International Airport
Overview
Rafael Nuñez International Airport serves Cartagena, Colombia, as a medium-sized airport positioned near the Caribbean coast. Located at 4 feet mean sea level with coordinates 10.442400, -75.513000, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for regional and international commercial operations. Its single runway (01/19) extends 8,530 feet with an asphalt surface, accommodating diverse aircraft types.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Rafael Nuñez are predominantly visual flight rules (VFR), with 95.2% of observations supporting clear conditions. The airport experiences consistent tropical temperatures averaging 28.2°C, ranging between 23°C and 35°C. Wind patterns are predominantly northerly at an average of 6 knots, with maximum gusts reaching 19 knots. December, January, and September represent the most favorable VFR months for aviation.
Notable Features
The airport's low elevation of 4 feet MSL indicates a coastal plain environment with minimal terrain interference. Its single runway (01/19) demonstrates excellent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind conditions and an average crosswind of only 2.7 knots. The geographical positioning near Cartagena suggests maritime influences on local meteorological patterns.
Approach Considerations
Runway 01/19 provides consistent wind-aligned approaches, minimizing crosswind challenges for pilots. With exceptionally stable visibility averaging 10 statute miles and negligible instances of reduced visibility, instrument approaches are typically straightforward. Pilots can expect predictable conditions, particularly during the peak VFR months of December, January, and September.
