La Campana de San Quintín Airport

The closure was due to a combination of factors, primarily economic non-viability and obsolescence. As a small, private dirt strip, its upkeep likely depended on local users. Its disuse coincided with the continued operation of the nearby San Quintín Military Airfield (which also handles some civil aviation) and the subsequent planning and construction of a major new government airport for the region, rendering this small airstrip redundant.

The site is completely abandoned as an airfield. The faint outline of the former north-south dirt runway is still visible on satellite imagery, but the surface is overgrown, uneven, and crossed by informal vehicle tracks. There are no remaining airport-specific facilities such as hangars, terminals, or fuel services. The land is effectively unused, surrounded by agricultural fields and residential properties of the 'Colonia la Campana' community.

La Campana was a small, unpaved airstrip (aeropista) that primarily served local general aviation needs for the San Quintín valley, a major agricultural hub. Its operations were typical for such a facility in rural Mexico and likely included:
- Agricultural Aviation: Supporting crop dusting and spraying operations for the vast farmlands in the area.
- Private Transport: Use by local ranch and farm owners for personal and business travel in light aircraft.
- Limited Tourism/Charter: Potentially serving small charter flights for tourists or sportsmen visiting the region for its coastal and outdoor activities.
Its significance was purely local, providing basic air access before the development of larger, more formal aviation infrastructure.

There are zero plans or prospects for reopening La Campana de San Quintín Airport. All regional aviation development efforts are focused on the new, large-scale San Quintín Airport being constructed by the Mexican Secretariat of the Navy (SEMAR) at a different location (approximately 18 km to the southeast). This new airport is designed to handle commercial passenger and cargo jets to boost tourism and economic development for the entire municipality. The existence of this major project makes the revival of a small, rudimentary strip like La Campana obsolete and highly improbable.
