Honduras Cruises

Enjoy a Honduras Holiday your Way!

Honduras is a slice of paradise in Central America, home to some parts of the Mesoamerican Reef – the world’s second-largest coral reef system next to the Great Barrier Reef in Australia.  A Honduras holiday grants holidaymakers endless white-sand beaches, vibrant marine life, Mayan archeological sites and diverse cultures to discover. Tegucigalpa is the bustling capital city of Honduras, surrounded by lush mountains and steeped with well-preserved Spanish colonial architecture.

The main cruise gateway to this Central American gem is the island of Roatan, just off the coast of Honduras, where there’s as much to discover on land as there is below its clear blue waters! Roatan is one of Honduras’ Caribbean Bay Islands, known for its idyllic beaches, dive sites and marine life, including the breath-taking whale shark. Whether you want to explore the spectacular underwater world of the pristine Honduran Reef, visit the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Copan or take a nature trip through the mangrove tunnels – there’s really something for everyone! So, how do you plan to have a happy Honduras holiday?

Things to Do in Honduras

Go underwater

Undeniably one of the best things to do in Honduras is exploring its extraordinary underwater world, teeming with marine life, striking shipwrecks and extensive coral network – thanks to its awe-inspiring piece of the Mesoamerican Reef. Roatan is a premier destination for scuba diving and snorkelling, home to over 100 incredible dive sites around the island’s coastline. Snorkel through Starfish Alley, where you’ll find a blanket of stars dotting the seabed in less than 3 feet of water. Mary’s Place is another excellent dive site, where you’ll swim with stunning coral canyons brimming with life, and El Aguila is a renowned shipwreck that was deliberately sunk in 1997.

Bask on the beach

Roatan hosts a plethora of amazing beaches, offering something for every mood and style! West Bay Beach is a gorgeous beach with shallow crystal-clear waters and fine sand, where you can enjoy various water activities like scuba diving, snorkelling, parasailing, deep sea fishing and paddle-boarding. The Glass Bottom Boat is a main attraction on the island, which allows tourists to glimpse at the staggering coral reefs in the depths of the Bay Islands even without a professional scuba diving certification. For a secluded and serene vibe, Palmetto Bay Beach is an ideal escape from the hustle and bustle – perfect for unwinding and relaxing under the Honduran sunshine!

Take a day trip to Copan

History buffs can take a day trip  to the ancient city of Copan – a UNESCO World Heritage archaeological site home to the ruins of a once-thriving Mayan city that rivals the beauty of Chichen Itza in Mexico and Tikal National Park in Guatemala. Situated near the border with Guatemala, Copan Ruinas is one of the best-preserved Mayan sites in Latin America. Taking a tour of the site, you’ll see plenty of intricate carvings on the temples and structures throughout the area. One of the most prominent attractions here is the massive hieroglyphic stairway in the centre, featuring one of the world’s largest inscriptions. 

Spot the Honduran national bird

Bird-watching is one of the unmissable experiences in Honduras, home to diverse bird species, such as wild toucans, hummingbirds and parrots. Found in Honduras’ lush forests, scarlet macaw is the country’s national bird. These feathered creatures are loud and bright, making them easy to spot. The Macaw Mountain in the Copan Archeological Park is a top location offering a guaranteed encounter with these majestic birds! Thanks to the consistent breeding programs and efforts, you can catch sight of dozens of scarlet macaws flying freely on the horizon.
