Copacabana Airport (Spanish; Castilian: Aeropuerto Copacabana,) is an extremely high elevation airport serving Copacabana, a town on Lake Titicaca in the La Paz Department of Bolivia.

Town and airport are on a peninsula connected to Peru, with no land connection with Bolivia. The runway is south of the town, in a dead-end valley that opens onto the lake. There is rising terrain in all quadrants except west-southwest, over the lake.
