Travel Blogs from Tela, Honduras
Night of the Yowling Cat
This is a top pick! We have spent the last two nights in the beach town of Tela. Honduras is dead-set on turning Tela into the next Cancun, but in the meantime it is a nice place to be. Pleasant vibe, lots of humidity, not very expensive. After checking out a few more ...
viva la vida
This is a top pick! ... isnt yeton its way. No we just havnt worte the blog in a while because we´ve been busy seeing the sights of honduras bacuse were on the move already. But first the iguana station. So Claire made me that birthday cake and it was delicious. ...
Crossing Honduras
This is a top pick! ... various beers. Our main objective this week, however, was to dip our toes in the turquoise waters of the Caribbean on Honduras' northern coast. Unfortunately, the rainy season hasn't quite ended here - which has meant stormy seas and cloudy days - so ...
Carribean Dreaming......Or not!!
This is a top pick! ... outside who just kept glaring in our window!! Now we can laugh, but at the time we were really uncomfortable, we visited Tela expecting good cheap eateries and accommodation and gorgeous beaches - that was not what we found! So, next morning up at ...
We have de-railed..............
This is a top pick! ... to La Ceiba with the intention of catching a ferry to the bay islands ie Roatan, but end up getting off the bus in Tela for budget reasons. This is where we got shipwrecked for five days....long story short: we were really disappointed at first (trash, ...
Beach, Bike and Hike
This is a top pick! Our first evening in Tela, a "beach city" in northern Honduras, was no more than shopping around for an affordable hotel, checking out various disappointing book exchanges, and eating dinner at a restaurant oddly called the "Luces del Norte" (Northern ...
Tela
This is a top pick! Hi Guys, You can read our update from Tela in our entry from Omoa, Honduras entitled 'A Taste of the Carribean'. Cheers, K & ...
The Banana Republic
... so long in Guatemala that i now have limited time in the other countries, but it is an impressive place. Our first night in Honduras (named by Christopher Columbus after the deep waters off the coast - as it is translated as depths in Spanish) was meant ...
Mito and Garifuna culture
... about what is attractive in the seduction process! - check out the video. Guillermo is one of the most famous singers in Honduras but even his entrance was greeted with subdued clapping - he got the audience to warm up after a while though - singing ...
The Stress Test
Today is my last set of tests before I become a dive master. I would be doing them with Roi, an Israeli who started the course six weeks ago with me and who would also be finishing today. We somehow managed to fit my last five tests into ...
Un deux trois je pars a Tela
... de taxi à couper le bus pour que nous puissions y monter. Ça y est encore une fois, j'ai eu de la chance!!! En arrivant à Tela, il était 9 heures... pas vite, vite le bus. Il fait donc nuit et de manière proactive, on avait déjà indentifié un ...
Into Honduras
... different, no one was in line for immigration. We just walked up paid $5.00 and got our entrance stamp in Honduras. I'm sure this experience will be fairly different when doing border crossings in the future. Crossing the border we decided on staying ...
cam
... ’s a traditional Garifuna village on the end of a sand spit, infront of, apparently, one of the biggest lagoons in Honduras & with the highest mangroves of all of Central America! The village is sweet, still very traditional, with all houses ...
The Snorkel Test
After a good day diving Roi and I had a few hours before our Snorkel Tests. All I can say is that I have never been so prepared for a hangover in my life. I had a Gatorade waiting on my bed for when I got home, one next it for the morning ...
Punta Sal (Mieke, Kathleen en Koen)
Hola, Vandaag hebben we onze eerste trip als drietal achter de rug. We hebben een tour gedaan naar het mooie natuurreservaat van Punta Sal. Eerst werden we met een lancha naar deze mooie plek gebracht. Onderweg werden we verrast door een aantal ...
90 days have flown by! To Honduras, or ...
... this case had to be at a border or port with other countries than the 4 in Central America. Hence we decided to continue to Tela, Honduras which is a port on the northern shore in the Caribbean and were I was going to stay anyway. However, it was Sunday ...
Kayaks Suck.
... and I started taking cipro as well. That all worked and in a couple of days I was better and we left Granada for Tegucigalp, Honduras, where we were going to spend the night, but we decided to keep going to San Pedro Sula. For the bus to Tegucigalpa, we ...
A dirty Caribbean Beach Town
... themselves Garifunas, and are descendants from African slaves. They have a number of traditional communities scattered along the north coast of Honduras. But basically, they are all scumbags. It doesn’t sound nice, but I simply tell it how it is. ...
Tela - Garifuna and unspoiled beaches
... I have to admit the mappinning is not quite right. I skipped the pin for La Ceiba and went directly to Tela. La Ceiba is the 3rd biggest city in Honduras and it just does not look like its a big city. However we found all what we needed there. I ...
Still on the Caribbean ... but in Honduras now
... couple of weeks to go before our trip ends in Antigua during the last few days of Semana Santa, we decided to explore Honduras' Caribbean coast (or Northern Coast as it is known here) ... Vamos a ver we said to ourselves. We boarded a ...
Hurricane Dean (J en T)
Hoi hoi We zitten hier in Tela, een rustig caraibisch dorpje met een mooi palmbomenstrand. Maar aangezien de orkaan Dean in de buurt is was het weer niet echt schitterend zodat we geen uitstappen konden doen omdat de zee te wild was. We waren dan maar ...
Honduras
... didn't look to pretty. Lot of garbage everywhere, but i am sure that was all there before the rain. Tela is on the north west coast of Honduras. You start to notice the Garufina/ carribean culture like Belize. The town was so small, with a bunch of ...
Tela
Wow, am I behind in my blogs... Tela was an interesting little city, but slightly dissapointing. To be honest, it not fair to judge when I had the worst few days of weather of my entire stay in South America here, as it is primarily a beach ...
Garifuna in abandon
... used as a research station and spent a very pleasent hour with a guide who very patiently repeated what each plant was about three times untill be fully understood it. With tela done we are of the capital for the night before heading into ...
Passing through Tela
... too much. The owner gives a recomendation for the place down the street and I don't argue. This is a mistake. I hear Tela is a great place to find cheap seafood so I head to the beach. After a few overpriced beach hotels I find a ...
No room at the Inns
... this point I'd had enough and I wasn't going to make the last ferry to Utila so I decided to say in the beachside town of Tela. This was easier said than done. After six hotels that were full, two that charged as if they were situated in New ...
Volcanoes, Pupusas and Bluebird buses
... few days. We were under the impression that we could pay a small fine at the border, but unbeknownst (sp?) to us, Honduras, Nicaragua, El Salvador and Guatemala had created this united visa thingie and in actuality we only had 90 days for ...
Turtles, pilot whales and dolphins
After a (forced) day off after my snorkel test I was back in the water and had some good dives. We found a large turtle asleep in a small hollow. Whilst we were watching it a smaller turtle swam underneath me, attacked the larger turtle and ...
