The information was made public during the visit of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador to the state last Friday.

A meeting was held in the naval zone of Tulum with local and state government officials, regarding the projects that the federal government is currently pursuing in the state. At that time it was revealed that the land where the airport is going to be built is in the municipality of Felipe Carrillo Puerto.

Tulum Airport Location Revealed

Originally it had been said that the airport would be located in the area of Tulum. However, the map showing the location of the land showed that it is actually about 15 kilometers south of Tulum, in the municipality of Felipe Carrillo Puerto.

Regardless, it will still be within the area where it was originally intended to be built, and is anticipated to bring a boost for traffic for the municipality with potential for increased income and opportunity for economic development for Felipe Carrillo Puerto, located in the south of the state.
