⭐ Core Definition: Isla San Felix Airport

Isla San Felix Airport Spanish: Aeropuerto Isla San Felix, (ICAO: SCFX) is an airport serving the Chilean Navy garrison on Isla San Felix, a Pacific island that is part of the Valparaíso Region of Chile. The island is some 900 kilometres (560 mi) off the coast of Chile, and 1,100 kilometres (680 mi) northwest of Valparaíso.

The runway goes the entire length of the small island, so all approaches and departures are over the ocean. There are no published radio navaids on the island.

Isla San Felix Airport in the context of Desventuradas Islands

The Desventuradas Islands (Spanish: Islas Desventuradas, IPA: [ˈislas ðesβentuˈɾaðas], "Unfortunate Islands" or Islas de los Desventurados, "Islands of the Unfortunate Ones") is a group of four small oceanic islands located 850 kilometres (530 mi) off the coast of Chile, northwest of Santiago in the Pacific Ocean. They are considered part of Insular Chile.

Due to their isolation and difficulty of access there are no civilian settlements on these islands, but a detachment of the Chilean Navy is stationed on Isla San Félix, which also hosts the 2,000-metre (6,600 ft) Isla San Felix Airport.
