Alberta Newbie Looking for Paradise

Hello Maureen

What route do you plan on flying to Honduras from ? All I can find is flights to TGU and then it looks like long bus rides to anywhere else.. ?

Try flights to Roatan, take ferry from there to mainland.

Another option from Canada is flying to Cayman Islands then take a flight right to La Ceiba.
There's a great mix now in La Ceiba of expats that I personally know from Canada, The US, Croatia, Poland, El Salvador, Chile, Israel, Australia and more. It's pretty cool when we have lobster parties together

I am from Las Vegas, Nevada, and will be flying into Roatan for the month of July. There are direct lights from Houston, Miami and I believe Atlanta now. There is a ferry that will take you on to Las Ceiba on the mainland once you are on Roatan. I will be on Roatan for the month of July and plan on visiting the mainland in La Ceiba. I plan on retiring sometime in early 2014 so this is an exploritory visit to determine where I might like to settle down and make a home base. I am interested in like minded individuals. I am 60, male and single and will be traveling alone. I have rented a two bedroom house in Sandy Bay for the month. I may take scuba lessons while there, but will definitely be snorkeling and using my metal detector to find hidden treasure, lol.

Don't forget to visit Cayos Cochinosfor a day for $35.00 USD. Great snorkeling and diving along with being a really beautiful group of islands. PM me when your coming to La Ceiba

Hi Maureen are u living already in HOnduras? I am an expat here.. just let me know...

Hi, I won't be leaving Canada for several years; heading to La ceiba / Trujillo area later this year to explore the area.

You will be off to paradise in a few weeks, have a wonderful time and best wishes on your search. Will you go to Trujillo? Cheers, Maureen

hi maureen,your best bet is to fly calgary-houston-roatan then take the ferry to la ceiba...you have to wath for the ferry because is 2 times a day roatan -la ceiba and back,you might want to check the hours.i think it's 7am and 2pm.

Hello, thanks for the tip.. I will consider ferry times, how far is it from the airport to the ferry? Is cab our best option for that transfer? M

never been there, we will go for the first time end of july,my friend was there last winter,he said something like 10 min taxi drive...check www.roatanferry.com,....pretty excited..
