Small regional airport serving coastal western Venezuela.

Location
San Juan de los Cayos, Venezuela
San Juan de los Cayos Airport (ICAO: SVSX) is a small general aviation and regional airstrip located in San Juan de los Cayos, a coastal town in the Falcón state of northwestern Venezuela. The airport serves the local community and surrounding fishing villages along the Venezuelan Caribbean coast. The facility is modest in scale, primarily handling light aircraft, charter flights, and limited domestic traffic rather than scheduled commercial airline service. Like many small Venezuelan regional airports, it operates under the oversight of Venezuelan civil aviation authorities. Due to Venezuela's broader economic and aviation sector challenges in recent years, scheduled services at facilities of this size have been significantly reduced or suspended, limiting the airport's operational activity.
