Weather Briefing
VFRBaracoa Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with broken clouds at 3,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east (90°) at 5 knots. Runway 11/29 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 2-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 3000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 24°C (75°F) with a dewpoint of 22°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Baracoa Airport
Overview
Baracoa Airport (SKMG) is a medium-sized airport located in Magangué, Colombia, situated at an elevation of 178 feet above mean sea level. The airport serves the local region with its single runway 11/29, which measures 4,921 feet in length and is surfaced with asphalt.
Flying Conditions
Located at 9.284740 latitude and -74.846100 longitude, the airport experiences typical tropical maritime weather conditions characteristic of Colombia's coastal regions. Pilots should anticipate potential variability in wind direction and speed, which can impact approach and landing procedures on the single runway.
Notable Features
The airport's moderate elevation of 178 feet MSL indicates a relatively low-altitude operational environment with minimal terrain challenges. The asphalt runway suggests standard surface conditions, but pilots should be prepared for potential local meteorological variations that are common in coastal Colombian regions.
Approach Considerations
Runway 11/29's 4,921-foot length accommodates medium-sized aircraft operations, providing sufficient runway distance for most regional and domestic aircraft. Approach planning should consider the runway's orientation and potential wind conditions, which may influence landing and takeoff preferences.
