Customer Review

Great book for student traveler.
I was wary about buying this book after reading the negative review. I was also getting nervous about my trip to Honduras, because all the websites have really expensive hotels, more than $100 US. Thank goodness for Lonely Planet because I can now enjoy a trip that I can afford. It's got just what I need, plenty of places to stay, eat and visit, all for much less than online. I guess that the places in Honduras that can afford websites charge an arm and a leg. I'm all about budget travel, and this book is the perfect companion. And it's slim, so it won't take up much valuable backpacking space. In response to the earlier review, as a student on a budget, I'm not too concerned that the history may be inaccurate. I'm going to Honduras to have a good, and inexpensive time. This book has saved me tons of money and let me relax and have a good time. Thanks Lonely Planet.

Product Description

The Bay Islands of Honduras, which extend up to 40 miles northeast of the north coast of Honduras, are remnants of the peaks of the Bonacca Ridge, a submerged mountain range that extends out from the mainland's Omoa Ridge. The three larger islands, Utila, Roatán, and Guanaja, are long-time premier diving destinations that offer spectacular coral reefs and powdery white sand beaches. These three, together with three smaller islands just east of Roatán, Morat, Barbareta, and St. Elena, as well as more than 60 cays, lie on a reef system that forms part of the second-largest barrier reef in the world. It creates natural breakwaters around the islands providing calm coastal waters that are ideal for diving, swimming, and snorkeling. Turquoise blue waters with 80 to 150 feet of visibility, an average temperature of 80° F, and an amazing reef system hosting much of the marine life diversity found in the Caribbean, offer some of the best scuba diving and other water sports you will find anywhere.

Pristine coral reefs, tropical waters, rainforests, and rivers meandering through jungles wait to be explored. Parks cover 24% of the country's area, where jaguars and giant anteaters reside. Coastal wetlands are home to monkeys, manatees, alligators and waterfowl. The north or Caribbean coast has mile upon mile of white sand beaches and lush tropical vegetation. Just 30 miles offshore are the Bay Islands, famous for first-class diving on the second-largest barrier reef in the world. This guide focuses in the Bay Islands, including Roatan, Utila & ithe Utila Cays, the Cayos Cocinos (Pig Islands), Guanaja. These are some of the best places for diving in the world.

This guide, by a lifelong resident, tells you everything about the history, the culture, the foods, how to get around, the recommended places to stay and eat, plus the activities and adventures, from cooking classes to monkey-spotting in the cloud forests. Honduras is just south of Belize and Guatemala, north of Costa Rica and Panama. Our guides on each of those countries have been strong sellers.

WHY VISIT HONDURAS? Great diving on the second-largest barrier reef in the world. The Maya ruins of Copan, a UNESCO World Heritage site. 112 protected areas, parks and reserves. River rafting, kayaking, hiking, biking, horseback riding in the midst of exuberant tropical nature. The most protected cloud forests in the world, with 35 reserves. The Ro Platano Reserve of Man Biosphere, a UNESCO World Heritage site. La Moskitia, the largest rainforest region in Central America. Top to learn more

Roatán, Honduras (Caribbean) Travel Guide - What To See & Do In 2012

Product Description

Kindle version of our illustrated travel guide will take you to Roatán.

Roatán is one of the Honduras Bay Islands in the Caribbean Sea. The island is located near the largest barrier reef in the Caribbean Sea (the second largest worldwide after Australia's Great Barrier Reef). It has become an important cruise ship and scuba diving destination.

For many years the island was a hidden gem, with some of the most beautiful white beaches and the best snorkel and diving spots in the Caribbean, but it was 'discovered' around 2005 by cruise ships and hotel developers. Since then several new cruise ship ports have been opened, causing a significant influx of tourists to the island.

great teaching map!
Thank you. The maps arrived quickly and in excellent condition. They are a good size and perfect for teaching children (and adults) about life in the waters off the bahamas. Laminated maps are perfect for the beach bag!

Great Dive Map
This dive map is great, the pictures of the fish are detailed and named. I am very happy that I decided to buy this. I love how it lists all of the dive sites on the island,the favorites, and the popular snorkeling spots. It was a great buy.

Fun little reference card
I'd give this five stars except the card doesn't show the entire Belize coastline. It cuts off at the south just above Placencia, which just happens to be where I'm headed to do some serious diving in a few weeks. In fairness, it would be difficult to read if the scale were any smaller. Perhaps Franko should consider producing two guides: one for the north and one for the south or drop the reef fish guide on the back and just break the map into two halves front and back.But it's a handy little little reference guide for the northern two thirds of the country and covers about 90% of the dive sites off Belize.
