Location
Nicoya, Costa Rica
Agropecuaria Playa Caletas Airport (ICAO: MRPT) is a small, private general aviation airstrip located in the Nicoya Peninsula area of Guanacaste Province, Costa Rica. It primarily serves agricultural and private flight operations in this rural coastal region.

The airport plays a modest but practical role in accessing areas where road travel is slow and unpaved.

Terminals
  • Main Airstrip Facility — A basic single-building operations area serving light general aviation and charter flights with minimal amenities.
Ground Transport
  • Private transfer arranged through local hotels or eco-lodges
  • Rental 4x4 vehicles recommended for unpaved coastal roads
  • Shared taxi services from nearby Nicoya town
  • Local bus connections available from Nicoya to surrounding villages

Dining

The airstrip itself has no dedicated dining facilities. Travellers should plan meals in Nicoya town, where local sodas serve traditional Costa Rican casados, rice, and fresh seafood. Nearby eco-lodges typically provide meals as part of their accommodation packages.

Traveller Tips
  • Arrange ground transport in advance — the area has limited on-demand options.
  • A 4x4 vehicle is strongly recommended as many local roads are unpaved and seasonally flooded.
  • Carry sufficient cash, as ATMs are scarce in the immediate coastal vicinity.
  • Check weather conditions carefully during the rainy season (May–November) as flights may be affected.
