Gustavo Rizo Airport
Cuba's Gustavo Rizo Airport, coded BCA, keeps Baracoa within reach of a short flight rather than a long mountain drive. The airfield sits just 26 feet above sea level and operates a single runway. BCA supports limited domestic connections to Baracoa, whose surrounding terrain makes overland travel from the rest of Cuba considerably slower than flying. The facility is modest, matching the scale of the town it serves, and public records for BCA list little beyond elevation and runway count, which is typical for a small regional airfield on this part of the Cuban coast.
