Small regional airstrip serving the Brazil-Venezuela border region.

Location
Pacaraima, Brazil
Suapi Airport (ICAO: SJMX) is a small general aviation airstrip located near Pacaraima, a municipality in the northern Brazilian state of Roraima. The facility sits in a remote area close to the Venezuelan border and serves primarily light aircraft and regional connectivity needs. Paracaraima is a significant border crossing point between Brazil and Venezuela, and small airstrips in the region play a supporting role in accessing communities and areas not easily reached by road.

Traveller Tips
