Marambio Airport (ICAO: SAWB) is an airport serving Marambio Base, an Argentinian research station on Seymour Island in the Antarctic Peninsula. Marambio is the main air-support node for most local and foreign stations in Argentine Antarctica, providing year-round medical evacuation, search and rescue, personnel, cargo, and mail transfer.[5]

Supplies are taken to the Marambio Base during the whole year for later distribution to other Argentine bases (except for Belgrano II). There are over 100 intercontinental flights every year.[6]
