Arroyo Barril Airport (MDAB) is a public domestic airport located in the Samaná Province of the Dominican Republic, serving the Samaná peninsula,. It is situated at coordinates 19°11′55″N 69°25′50″W and operates at an elevation of 57 feet (17.5 meters) above sea level,.
The airport has one asphalt runway, designated 11/29, which measures approximately 1,300 to 1,400 meters (4,265 to 4,593 feet) in length and 25 meters (82 feet) in width,. Originally designated as an international airport in 1994, it was reclassified for domestic flights only because its runway and apron were too small for large commercial aircraft.
