Top 10 Tropical Experiences in Honduras
- Dive In: You can’t ask for better aquatic fun than in Honduras. Swim, dive or snorkel through turquoise waters in the company of thousands of fish, crazy coral and colourful creatures.
- Two-Wheel Adventure: There’s plenty of adventure for landlubbers too. Hire a bicycle or scooter and head inland to explore volcanic landscapes, banana plantations and easy-going villages.
- Rum and Rumba: Spend the evenings practicing your Spanish with the locals over a guaro (sugar cane liquor), then hit the dance floor to learn some Caribbean moves.
- Explore Mayan Ruins: Explore Copan under the gaze of huge carved faces staring out from ancient walls. As you walk past monuments, statues and staircases it's hard not to wonder at the mysterious disappearance of such a creative civilisation.
- Colonial Traditions: Visit churches and hang out in plazas for a very different taste of the tropics. Christian traditions introduced by the Spanish are still very strong here and Semana Santa celebrations are incredibly colourful.
- Licuados: Cool off with a delicious fruit and milk licuado. Pick one up in any restaurant or a street stall as you explore.
- Coconut Bread: This is a sweet treat that screams "I’m in the tropics and my tastebuds think it’s awesome!"
- Beach Time: With all that sightseeing, drinking, eating and swimming under your belt, don’t forget to take time out to laze away on perfect white sand beaches.
- Shopping: There are plenty of goodies in the local markets to fill up your backpack. For unusual mementos pick up woodcarvings, traditional instruments, paintings, straw hats and even cigars.
- Go Bananas: If you’re in any doubt you’re in the tropics then grab a banana - they’re everywhere. Have a banana licuado, eat one fresh from the tree or try tajaditas (fried bananas).
