Pacific Coast gateway serving Colombia's port city of Tumaco.

Location
Tumaco, Colombia
La Florida Airport (IATA: TCO, ICAO: SKCO) is a domestic airport located in Tumaco, a port city in the Nariño department of southwestern Colombia along the Pacific coast. It serves as the primary air link for a region that is otherwise difficult to access due to limited road infrastructure and challenging terrain. The airport operates scheduled domestic flights connecting Tumaco to major Colombian cities, particularly Cali and Bogotá. Given the region's geographic isolation, air travel is essential for both passengers and cargo movement in and out of Tumaco. Tumaco is one of Colombia's most important Pacific ports, and the airport plays a strategic role in supporting commerce, government operations, and humanitarian efforts in a historically underserved region.
Terminals
The airport features a modest single terminal building suited to the low passenger volumes typical of regional Colombian domestic airports.
Getting to & from
Ground transport from the airport into Tumaco city center is primarily by taxi or informal vehicles, with no formal public transit system serving the route.
Airlines here
Satena, Colombia's government-operated airline, has historically provided scheduled service at La Florida Airport, alongside other regional carriers serving routes to Cali and Bogotá.
