On the shores of the crystal Caribbean Ocean, Honduras is the second largest country in Central America. Known as the Banana Republic, with an area of little more than 112,000 square kilometers (44,000 square miles - about the size of North Carolina or Bulgaria), Honduras contains great surprises for its visitors, from historic ruins to an exuberant ecosystem, full of unique and beautiful landscapes.
The interaction of the diverse people groups in the country causes it to overflow with cultural riches and originality.
This is the ideal location for those who want to rest and relax in the shade of palm trees or those who want to search out ancient mysteries that haunt the ruins of Mayan Cities. You can also view the riches of nature, full of life, protected in the National Parks, especially Pico Bonito, the second largest park in Honduras, located a few minutes from the center of the city of La Ceiba.
For those who love sea life, the Isle of Roatan offers more than 65 kinds of rocks and corals as well as a variety of sea life, seen in caverns, tunnels, and behind thick walls. This is the perfect place for diving and to feel the peace of the ocean in the deep blue waters of the Caribbean Sea.
