About La Florida Airport
Overview
La Florida Airport serves Tumaco, Colombia, positioned near the Pacific coast at 8 ft mean sea level. As a medium airport with a single 5249ft asphalted runway, it provides critical transportation infrastructure for the regional southwestern Colombian area. The airport's strategic location supports local and potentially regional aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at La Florida Airport are predominantly VFR, with 76.7% of observations showing clear conditions. Winds are consistently westerly at 270°, averaging 5.5 knots with maximum gusts to 12 knots. Temperature remains stable, ranging between 23°C and 30°C, with an average of 25.7°C, providing predictable environmental conditions for flight operations.
Notable Features
The airport's low elevation of 8 ft MSL suggests a coastal plain environment with minimal terrain complexity. Its single runway (06/24) demonstrates a straightforward operational layout typical of regional airports. The geographic coordinates (1.814420, -78.749200) indicate a location near the Pacific coastline, which likely influences local meteorological patterns.
Approach Considerations
Runway 06/24 offers favorable wind alignment, with 100% wind compatibility and minimal average crosswind of 2.4 knots. Pilots can expect consistently good visibility, with an average of 10 statute miles and extremely rare occurrence of reduced visibility conditions. September, October, and January represent the most reliably VFR months for operations.
