The airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the coastal province of Manabí, supporting regional transportation and potential commercial and general aviation operations.

Flying Conditions

The airport's elevation of 130 ft MSL suggests a relatively low-altitude environment typical of coastal Ecuador. Pilots should anticipate potential maritime weather influences, including potential humidity and variable wind conditions common to the Pacific coastal region.

Notable Features

The single runway (12/30) measures 7,451 feet in length and is constructed with an asphalt surface, providing substantial operational capabilities for medium-sized aircraft. Its geographic coordinates at -1.041650, -80.472198 position the airport in a coastal terrain environment near Portoviejo.

Approach Considerations

The 7,451-foot asphalt runway provides reasonable operational flexibility for approach and landing. Given the runway's orientation of 12/30, pilots should be prepared to assess wind conditions and select the most appropriate runway heading during arrival and departure procedures.
