Santa Liberdade Airstrip serves the remote municipality of Pacaraima in Roraima state, Brazil, situated near the Venezuelan border at the northern edge of the Amazon region. It functions primarily as a small general aviation and regional airstrip supporting border communities, humanitarian operations, and access to an otherwise isolated frontier zone. Its role is logistical rather than commercial, connecting indigenous communities and local administration to broader transportation networks.
- Main Airstrip Terminal — A basic single-room facility handling light aircraft arrivals and departures with minimal amenities.

Stocking up on supplies in Boa Vista before travelling to Pacaraima is strongly recommended.
- Carry sufficient cash as ATM access in Pacaraima is very limited.
