About Zagora Airport
Overview
Zagora Airport is a medium-sized airport located in southern Morocco, situated at an elevation of 2,414 feet above mean sea level. Positioned at coordinates 30.263858, -5.853341, the airport serves the Zagora region, providing critical aviation infrastructure in a desert-adjacent geographic context.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect predominantly VFR conditions, with 97.6% of observations indicating favorable visual flight rules. The airport experiences consistent wind patterns from the southwest (225°) at an average of 7.2 knots, with occasional gusts up to 28 knots. Temperature ranges from 1°C to 37°C, with an average of 18.9°C, suggesting significant diurnal temperature variations.
Notable Features
The airport's high elevation at 2,414 feet MSL indicates terrain complexity typical of southeastern Moroccan landscapes. Minimal fog occurrences (0.8% of observations) and consistently high visibility (average 10 statute miles) suggest generally stable atmospheric conditions. October, November, and January represent the most favorable months for visual flight operations.
Approach Considerations
With prevailing southwest winds, pilots should anticipate potential crosswind components during approach and landing. The statistical wind data suggests runway configurations aligned with southwest wind patterns will likely provide the most favorable approach conditions. The airport's consistent weather patterns, particularly during autumn and winter months, offer predictable flying environments for pilots.
