Honduras offers visitors a rich blend of natural beauty, ancient history, and vibrant culture. This Central American country boasts pristine Caribbean beaches, lush rainforests, and the spectacular Mesoamerican Barrier Reef - the second largest coral reef system in the world. History enthusiasts will love the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Copán, with its remarkable Mayan ruins featuring intricate stone carvings and hieroglyphics. The Bay Islands, including Roatán, Utila, and Guanaja, are world-renowned for exceptional diving and snorkelling opportunities. Each year, Honduras celebrates La Ceiba Carnival in May, one of Central America's biggest street parties with colourful parades and traditional music. While Honduras has limited international ferry connections, domestic water taxis and boats connect the mainland to the Bay Islands, making island-hopping easy.
