## Description

Tucked on the southern coast of Bahia, Caravelas Airport (CRQ) is best known as the springboard to the Abrolhos Marine National Park, Brazil's first marine reserve and a prime spot for whale watching between July and November. Traffic here is shaped by tourism and regional links rather than freight. CRQ has no cargo terminal: air shipments for the area are handled at the larger airports of Salvador (SSA) and Porto Seguro (BPS). Trucks then cover the final leg along the BR-101 and coastal roads. In short, Caravelas is a leisure gateway, not a freight stop.
