Remote airstrip serving Venezuela's pristine Los Roques archipelago.

Location
Los Roques Archipelago, Venezuela
Dos Mosquises Airport (ICAO: SVID) is a small general aviation airstrip located on Dos Mosquises Island within the Los Roques Archipelago National Park in Venezuela. The archipelago is a protected marine national park and one of Venezuela's premier ecotourism destinations, known for its coral reefs, clear waters, and diverse wildlife. The airport serves primarily small private aircraft and charter flights supporting scientific research, conservation work, and ecotourism activities in the area. Dos Mosquises Island is home to a sea turtle conservation station operated by the Fundación Científica Los Roques, and the airstrip facilitates access for researchers and visitors to this facility. Due to its remote location and the protected status of the surrounding national park, the airport sees very limited traffic and has minimal infrastructure. The main commercial gateway to Los Roques is Gran Roque Airport (SVRS), which handles the bulk of passenger and charter traffic to the archipelago.
Getting to & from
Ground transport is not applicable as the island is a small cay accessible only by boat or small aircraft.

Traveller Tips
  • Dos Mosquises is primarily used by scientific researchers and special charters; confirm access permissions well in advance.
  • Most tourist visitors to Los Roques fly into Gran Roque Airport (SVRS), not Dos Mosquises.
  • Bring all essential supplies including water, food, and medication, as facilities on the island are extremely limited.
