Remote Baja California airport serving a salt-industry town.

Location
Guerrero Negro, Mexico
Guerrero Negro Airport (IATA: GUB, ICAO: MMGR) is a small regional airport located near Guerrero Negro, a town in Baja California Sur, Mexico, close to the border with Baja California state. Despite the profile listing San Quintín as the city, the airport primarily serves Guerrero Negro and its surrounding area. The airport supports limited scheduled and charter air service, primarily connecting Guerrero Negro to other points in the Baja California Peninsula. The town is known for its massive salt production operations and as a gateway to the Ojo de Liebre Lagoon, a UNESCO World Heritage Site famous for gray whale watching. Due to the remote nature of the region and the small local population, the airport handles modest passenger volumes and operates with basic facilities typical of a rural Mexican airport.
Terminals
The airport features a single small terminal building with basic passenger amenities appropriate for its low traffic volume.
Getting to & from
Ground transportation to and from the town of Guerrero Negro is primarily by taxi or private vehicle, as no formal public transit service operates from the airport.

Traveller Tips
  • Book grey whale watching tours well in advance, especially between January and March during peak season.
  • Carry cash as ATM access in Guerrero Negro is limited and card acceptance is not guaranteed at smaller businesses.
