Weather Briefing
VFRPuerto Jimenez Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 1,500 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are calm, presenting no crosswind concerns for any runway.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: scattered at 1,500 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 25°C (77°F) with a dewpoint of 23°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 12 hours. Conditions are expected to fluctuate between VFR and MVFR. VFR pilots should be prepared for deteriorating conditions. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast between 02:00Z and 06:00Z.
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. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About Puerto Jimenez Airport
Overview
Puerto Jimenez Airport serves the Osa Peninsula region of Costa Rica, located in a coastal area known for its biodiversity and proximity to Corcovado National Park. As a medium-sized airport with an elevation of 7 feet mean sea level, it provides essential air access to this remote and ecologically significant part of southwestern Costa Rica.
Flying Conditions
The airport's low elevation and coastal location suggest potential for variable maritime weather conditions, with likely influence from Pacific Ocean air masses. Pilots should anticipate potential humidity, thermal variations, and potential marine layer development given the airport's proximity to coastal environments.
Notable Features
Situated at coordinates 8.533330, -83.300003, Puerto Jimenez Airport features a single runway (16/34) approximately 2,707 feet in length. The surrounding terrain of the Osa Peninsula likely presents complex local topography, with mountainous regions and dense tropical vegetation potentially influencing wind patterns and approach dynamics.
Approach Considerations
The runway's orientation of 16/34 suggests potential crosswind scenarios depending on prevailing maritime wind patterns. Pilots should conduct thorough preflight planning, considering the relatively short runway length and potential local terrain effects when preparing for arrival or departure at this medium-sized airport.
