Pedro Teixeira Castelo Airport serves the municipality of Tauá in the Inhamuns region of Ceará, Brazil, connecting this semi-arid inland city to the broader national air network. The airport plays a modest but important role for regional travelers and business visitors navigating the Brazilian sertão. Its small scale reflects the character of Tauá itself — a practical, community-oriented stop rather than a major hub.
- Passenger Terminal — A single small terminal building handling regional arrivals and departures with basic passenger amenities.
- Taxi services available outside the terminal
- Private car hire arranged locally
- Informal shuttle services to Tauá city center
- Hotel Buriti Tauá
- Pousada do Sertão

Food options inside the terminal are extremely limited given its small size, so travelers should plan meals before arrival or departure. The city of Tauá, a short drive away, offers local northeastern Brazilian cuisine including typical dishes such as carne de sol, baião de dois, and regional pastries at local restaurants and lanchonetes.
- Confirm your flight directly with the airline or local agents, as schedules can be irregular or subject to change at small regional airports.
- Carry cash, as ATM availability at and around the airport may be limited.
- The Tauá region can be extremely hot, especially between August and November, so dress accordingly and stay hydrated.
- Arrange ground transportation in advance, as taxis and transfers may not always be readily available upon arrival.
