Los Roques Airport () is a small domestic airport on the El Gran Roque island in the Los Roques archipelago off the coast of mainland Venezuela, some north of Caracas.
The runway was extended 300 metres in 2023, by means of a controversial landfill in the eastern shore of the airport. Air traffic was controlled remotely from Simón Bolívar International Airport, but since 2023 the airport has a mobile air traffic control tower.
