Timbiqui Airport (ICAO: SKMB) is a small airstrip serving Timbiquí, a remote municipality in Colombia's Cauca Department near the Pacific coast. Located in the humid Chocó biogeographic region, it primarily handles light aircraft and charter flights connecting the community to larger hubs such as Cali, Popayán, or Buenaventura. Its basic runway and facilities reflect the town's limited road access and reliance on river and air transport.
💡 Local Tip
Rain is frequent, so keep a light rain jacket and allow buffer time because flights may be delayed by weather. Ask the pilot or local ground staff about the latest river conditions if you plan to continue by boat; the Timbiquí River can rise quickly after heavy rain.
🚖 Getting There
Because Timbiquí has no reliable all-weather road link, most travelers arrive by air or river. From the airport, local mototaxis or prearranged pickup are the usual way into town; agree on the fare beforehand. If flights are cancelled due to rain, be prepared to adjust plans or use river transport.
