Honduras is a Central American country with Caribbean Sea coastlines to the north and the Pacific Ocean to the south. In the tropical rainforest near Guatemala, the ancient Mayan ceremonial site Copán has stone-carved hieroglyphics and stelae, tall stone monuments. In the Caribbean Sea are the Bay Islands, a diving destination that’s part of the 1,000km-long Mesoamerican Barrier Reef. Honduras is known for its rich natural resources, including minerals, coffee, tropical fruit, and sugar cane, as well as for its growing textiles industry, which serves the international market.
In 2022, Cruise ships have started returning to Roatan at both the Cruise Terminal in Coxen Hole, and Carnival’s Mahogany Bay Port. The best time to visit Honduras is during the dry season between December and April. Temperatures are warm, sitting between 79°F and 90°F, and downpours are less likely, as Honduras is a tropical country. However, travel to Honduras can be enjoyable all year-round.
