Utila was really nice. The fishing and the snorkeling was great ! There were some serious biting insect problems when we were there, because the winds were dead. We traveled via chicken buses started from Chiquimula, Guatemala and ended up jumping on an ancient cesna sky-cab. The Honduran people are very wonderful. With the exceptions of the Honduran soldiers, as they tried to shake me down numerous times to get money, when we were on the road. Overall, I would give the bay-islands a good thumbs up. best-wishes, Mel.
