Our Suggestions
Roatan and Utila in the Bay Islands have some of the best scuba diving in the world! We prefer Roatan's diverse coral topography and on shore landscape.
Favorite Dive sites in Roatan: Blue Channel, Hole In the Wall, Mandy's Eel Garden, Mary's Place, The Odyssey Wreck, and West End Wall.
Pico Bonito near La Ceiba is a gem! Cooler temperatures, mountains and jungle, hardly any bugs, and class 4 and 5 river rafting rapids! Check out Omega, they are great in every way!
Copan Ruins are an interesting site, however not the favorite of Mayan Ruins in Central America.
Try a Baleada. It's like a flatbread taco/burrito... they are amazing and cheap. Only get one unless you have a huge appetite.
Make it to Creole's Rotisserie Chicken in West End, Roatan and "Hole in the Wall" restaurant near Jonesville, Roatan. Two not to miss restaurants. Amazing food and atmosphere!
