Palmar Sur Airport — Palmar Sur, Costa Rica

Palmar Sur Airport, coded PMZ, serves the town of Palmar Sur in the Puntarenas province of southern Costa Rica, near the mouth of the Térraba River. The area is notable for the pre-Columbian stone spheres of the Diquís culture, a UNESCO World Heritage archaeological site, as well as proximity to the Osa Peninsula's rainforest and wildlife reserves. PMZ handles small domestic flights on light aircraft, serving eco-tourists heading toward Corcovado National Park and nearby lodges, as well as local agricultural traffic tied to the region's banana and palm oil plantations. The airport remains a modest airstrip typical of rural southern Costa Rica.
