Honduras Travel

Amapala is a beautiful island in the Pacific, just off the coast of mainland Honduras.

A few days ago I was talking to my brother about options for traveling not very far away from Tegucigalpa, and he told me about a trip he recently made with his family to Amapala, Honduras.

I have been to Amapala a couple of times before, but the last time was several years ago. When my brother mentioned Amapala, I was surprised to notice that I haven’t been there for a long time. Why I haven’t gone to Amapala recently? I really don’t know; it’s a very good option for people who live in Tegucigalpa since it is not very far away, and it’s a really beautiful place to visit.

The majority of Honduras’s tourists come from the US, flying into the small, efficiently run airports (toilets are spotlessly clean, as they are in the main petrol stations) in San Pedro Sula, La Ceiba and the capital, Tegucigalpa (pronounced Teg-goosie-galpa). Honduras has an excellent internal flight network, and it was an easy 30min/55km hop out to Roatán, the biggest of the three Bay Islands.

The island of Utila is host to a throbbing nightlife fueled by a steady stream of thirsty backpackers. Locals and travellers mix freely in such popular places as Treetanic, a massive outdoor assembly of gangways, platforms, sweeping archways and a funky marine decor.

Despite its undeniable charm, Utila remains a well-kept secret unblighted by tourist overkill. Utila is a haven for the weary traveller, a place of sunshine, warmth, and relaxation where time stands still and tickets home have a tendency to mysteriously disappear…Read Utila story here.

It’s a miracle that earth has such beauties in its lap. It is simply impossible to create a wonder like the ones which are naturally made. If we see the planet from space, and take a glance towards America, then you can see a bridge that connects North America with South America. Honduras lies on that particular bridge which we can see from space. It’s amazing to feel the glory of nature, especially when we stand at a place which is surrounded with the greenery, and colorful natural beauties.

To start, Cusuco National Park is located west to San Pedro Sula, Honduras. the cloud forest has 2 zones. The core zone and the buffer zone. The core zone is the area where the forest is most dense and virgin, and it’s more protected. The buffer zone surrounds the core zone; it’s the area where mountain villages settled.

The huge diversity of activities you can do in Cusuco National park is amazing. I will give you top 10 I most like. Our guide from junglexpedition tours showed us the way.

Frommer’s has just debuted a new travel guide to Honduras.

Nicholas Gill, author of the first edition of “Frommer’s Honduras”, says the Central American country has “a little bit of everything: beaches, active adventures, historical sites, indigenous cultures, wildlife and laidback getaways.”

His recommendations for best travel experiences include:

—Semana Santa in Comayagua, the week between Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday when “vivacious daily processions and hordes of pilgrims” show their devotion.

—Diving the barrier reef in the Bay Islands, which the author says is not only spectacular but cheap when compared to diving rates in other parts of the world.
