Book Description

March 1, 2002
Once a haven for pirates, 67 sleepy islands and cays off the Honduras mainland are now a budding ecotourism destination. The clear, warm waters are home to every fish species found in the Caribbean, as well as most hard corals, gorgonians and sponges. Renowned for wall diving, the region also boasts several wrecks, shallow reefs and fascinating blue-water sites. Visitors can swim with dolphins, while lucky divers may spot a passing whale shark. This book describes 74 of the best dive sites, with full-color photos throughout.

You'll get specific information on:
•Dive site topography and access
•Common and hazardous marine life
•Diving services for the major islands
•Travel logistics and topside attractions
•13 easy-to-read maps

This review is from: Diving & Snorkeling Honduras' Bay Islands (Paperback)
I live in Utila in the Bay Islands in Honduras and i see many people arriving with this book in their hand and all of them tell me that they use it all of the time and it is an invaluable source of information.

I myself have seen it and read it i would say that it is the best travel guide on Honduras it gives you all the information you will need.

This review is from: Diving & Snorkeling Honduras' Bay Islands (Paperback)
This book delivers what it promises. It offers a complete evaluation of all the dive/snorkel sites in the Bay Islands - what features each site possesses and what fish. As a snorkeler, I appreciated the detail about which areas are ideal for snorkeling and which can be accessed by the shore. The book does not go into detail about the operators, which is fine by me. Also, you still might want to invest in a regular travel guide for the rest of Honduras. But it bears repeating that this book is exceptionally complete in covering all the diving spots off the northern coast of Honduras. If you plan to do any diving at all, I wouldn't be without it.
