Honduras never ceases to amaze, and in some cases, bewitch. Its attractive destinatio­ns combined with landscapes taken right out of a postcard are complement­ed by a variety of activities you can enjoy as a couple, among family, friends and even alone! Just join a group of adventurer­s to make your experience more enriching. If seeking that adrenaline rush, canopy, rafting, canyoning, hiking and rappelling are some of the deals the country has to offer. To kick it up a notch skydiving, kite flying and abseiling are activities that are gaining a lot of interest among travelers. Scuba diving and snorkeling are very popular, especially in Utila, Roatan, Guanaja and Cayos Cochinos. On three of these islands more ferry routes have been scheduled between La Ceiba and Trujillo, and even among themselves. Since Cayos Cochinos is a protected area there are certain restrictio­ns for vessels to gain access, which is why it is best to hire a tour operator and enjoy a better experience. Tela, despite offering scuba diving for several years now, has gained much more attention lately. La Ceiba and Lago de Yojoa promote adventure and nature activities, including bird watching. The latter has gained a sudden boom even in the southern part of Honduras. You can feast your eyes on the lovely architectu­re of the colonial cities that have delighted locals and visitors by boasting their historical legacy with great pride. Moreover the Maya heritage, located in Copan, which is declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, is always worth visiting. Remember: “All journeys have secret destinatio­ns of which the traveler is unaware. “(Martin Buber). Enjoy your experience in Honduras!
