Location

Saint-Georges-de-l'Oyapock, French Guiana

Saint-Georges-de-l'Oyapock Airport (IATA: OYP, ICAO: SOOG) is a small regional airport serving the commune of Saint-Georges-de-l'Oyapock in French Guiana, an overseas territory of France located on the northeastern coast of South America. The airport sits near the Oyapock River, which forms the natural border between French Guiana and Brazil. The airport primarily handles light aircraft and small regional flights connecting the remote border town to Cayenne, the capital of French Guiana. Air Guyane and similar regional carriers have historically operated services to this destination, supporting the local population and limited tourism in the area. Saint-Georges-de-l'Oyapock is notable for its proximity to the Oyapock River Bridge, which opened in 2017 and physically connects French Guiana to Brazil for the first time by road. The airport remains an important transport link for a town that is otherwise difficult to reach by land.

Terminals

The airport has a single small terminal facility suited to light regional traffic with minimal passenger amenities.

Getting to & from

Ground transport options are limited, with taxis and private vehicles providing access to the small town centre, and river canoes available for crossing to Oiapoque, Brazil.
