Gateway to Brazil's northernmost frontier amid Roraima's wild landscapes

Santa Rita Airport serves the remote municipality of Uiramutã in the far northern tip of Roraima state, Brazil, near the borders with Venezuela and Guyana. Set within the Raposa Serra do Sol indigenous territory, the airport plays a vital logistical role connecting this isolated frontier community to regional services. Its small scale reflects the sparse population of the region, where air access is often the most practical means of transport.

Terminals
  • Main Terminal — A compact single-room facility handling light aircraft and small regional flights with basic passenger amenities.
Ground Transport

  • Private vehicle or pickup hire through local contacts
  • Motorcycle taxi (mototaxi) within Uiramutã town
Nearby Hotels

Dining

Food options at the airport itself are essentially nonexistent given its size. Visitors should plan to eat in Uiramutã town, where small local restaurants and community-run establishments serve basic Brazilian and regional fare. Supplies and variety are limited, so travellers are advised to bring provisions for extended stays.

Traveller Tips
  • Confirm your flight well in advance — schedules are irregular and subject to change in this remote region.
  • Carry sufficient cash as ATMs and banking services are extremely limited in Uiramutã.
  • Entry into the Raposa Serra do Sol indigenous territory may require advance authorization — check FUNAI requirements before visiting.
  • Pack essentials including water, food, and any medications, as supply options in town are very limited.
