About Macanal Airport
Macanal Airport (NAD) is a small regional airport serving the Macanal area and the municipality of Puerto Colombia in Colombia's Guainía Department. Also known as Maroa Northwest, it provides a domestic air link to this remote Amazon–Orinoco region, where much of the local travel depends on rivers and light aircraft.
Located near the locality of Macanal, roughly 120 km from Inírida, the departmental capital, the airport helps connect scattered river communities with regional services. It operates a single runway (05/23) and a compact passenger terminal used for domestic operations.
Ground connections in the area are limited, so arriving passengers typically continue by river boat or small aircraft to Puerto Colombia, Maroa, Inírida and other settlements.
As a small regional facility, the airport offers basic passenger amenities, including a waiting area and restrooms, and serves as a practical gateway for travelers visiting this remote part of Guainía.
