Roatan Information FAQ > Getting There & Around

How do I get around Honduras and the Bay Islands?

Regular domestic flights service San Pedro Sula, Tegucigalpa, La Ceiba, Trujillo, Roatan, Utila, Guanaja and three or four remoter destinations in the Mosquitia region.

There are frequent bus services to most towns and a variety of services from first class buses with AC and TV to basic public buses. Between town first buses leave early morning and the last bus late afternoon. Very rarely will buses travel at night.

Direct first class bus services also run to El Salvador, Nicaragua and Guatemala from Tegucigalpa or San Pedro Sula.

Ferry services run from La Ceiba to Roatan and Utila and back daily. Throughout the Bay Islands you will find water taxis as well for hire.

Taxis can be found in larger towns and all fares are negotiable. Cars can be rented also throughout the country. Within the cities and on Roatan you an find mini-buses for short trips. In general, the cost of transportation at all levels is quite reasonable in Honduras and the Bay Islands.
