Júlio Belém Airport (IATA: PINICAO: SWPI) is the airport serving Parintins, Brazil. It is named after Júlio Furtado Belém (1911–1971), a local politician and member of the Amazonas State Assembly.

It is operated by the municipality of Parintins.

The airport was inaugurated in the 1980s as a replacement to an older facility located closer to the city center.

Every June, during the Parintins Folklore Festival, its traffic is greatly increased by charter and extra flights.

The airport is located 5 km (3 mi) from downtown Parintins.
