Small general aviation airport serving Portugal's Algarve coast.

Location
Portimão, Portugal
Portimão Airport (IATA: PRM, ICAO: LPPM) is a small general aviation aerodrome located near the city of Portimão in the Algarve region of southern Portugal. It primarily serves private aircraft, light aviation, skydiving operations, and aerial tourism rather than scheduled commercial passenger services. The airport sits close to the Atlantic coastline and benefits from the Algarve's mild, sunny climate, making it a popular base for recreational flying.
