Utila

Utila is the smallest of the major islands in The Bay Islands group. It is renowned as being one of the least expensive and one of the most beautiful places for scuba diving or just a fun vacation. Whether you are on a back-packing tour or just on a short Caribbean vacation, the island provides a rich and diverse cultural experience with it’s unique blend of British, American and Spanish heritages

Obviously, after a activity filled day diving in the reefs just off Utila, you will be looking for a place to unwind and share your day’s experiences with other travelers and locals alike for some true fun time in Utila! Fortunately, Utila has a lot to offer as far as sunset bars where you can rendezvous with your peers. Most of the great bars on Utila are on the water, and therefore offer a great view of the sunset every evening, so if you hurry, you will be able to take advantage of happy hour with a free, spectacular sunset!

Located on the mesoamerica coral reef, Utila is a unique Caribbean island destination.  We are known for our easy access to a diverse range of water activities like scuba diving, snorkeling, kayaking, and stand up paddleboarding. We are also a hub for whale shark viewing!

On land, we have hiking, exploring natural history, sunsets, yoga, and fun in the sun.   Whether you are looking to do an intensive dive and snorkel vacation,  want to unwind and relax, looking for a couples or family get away, or just enjoy a combination of it all,  you can find it on Utila

What  you won’t find are high-rises, fast food outlets, hawkers, or many of the other aspects of popular tourist areas.  With calm turquoise waters, laid back attitude, and a real community,  this is Utila.
