Traveller Tips
  • Confirm your charter or general aviation flight details directly with the operator, as schedules can be irregular.
  • Arrange ground transport in advance as taxis are not always waiting at the airstrip.

  • The Gulf of Morrosquillo beach area is close by — plan extra time if combining travel with a coastal visit.
