      Yeah, it's definitely THE thing to do in Roatan and Utila...along with partying of course. I recommend Copan Ruinas if you get a chance and also the jungle tours offered by Omega Tours which is located south of La Ceiba.

    I was born in Tela, barrio paraiso. Raised in Brooklyn. Loved your video. Haven't seen my town in many years. My view is not unbiased, but Hondurans are beautiful. Everyone expects certain look. There are black, white and even Asian Hondurans. The food is great. Will show this to my American daughter. Explore Garifuna culture. A complicated history. Careful with the gifuiti. The tribal one has certain properties. Mixed with plants that can make you hallucinate. But only the tribal one. The store bought or vendor one is safe. Enjoy sir!

    My wife and I vacationed in Tela way back in 1997 we loved it. I can`t remember the name of the hotel but it was on a beach about a mile from the town. I remember a hotel next to ours built on stilts. I remember a place in Tela named Sara`s Boarding house. We did a tour to Pulhapnazak water fall . We loved our time in Tela and we loved Honduras too .

    Native Teleno here, best beach to visit in Tela is called "La Ensenada" its hidden. The further down the coastline you walk from the pier the more exclusive resorts you will encounter, meaning resorts beaches for the rich. There you will see yachts and mansions. But the lit places is the "Boulevard Coasteno" which where you were filming. Best time to party is night time during Easter holiday or spring break. Also mid June for the festivals and carnivals. The biggest carnival in all Central America is only an hour away in a town called "La Ceiba". Hope you enjoy
