you have excellent taste. I am half Mexican, half Honduran, and I am so proud of being Honduran. I couldn't agree more, it truly is one of the best kept secrets in the world. Mainland Honduras is wonderful as well.
@@jeffyeah4256 I'm half Mexican, half Honduran. All I'm going to say is that you can't compare the two- you just can't. Honduras has its own beauty, it is one of the largest countries in Central America, has so much to offer and has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to envy Mexico. Honduras shines with her own light. Comparing/contrasting is just dumb. I couldn't agree more with Brian, it truly indeed is one of the best kept secrets in the world. Mexico can keep the crazy spring breakers, while Honduras and her beautiful beaches stay intact and welcome the rich European tourists.
@@jeffyeah4256 Mexico may have the ruins of Teotihuacan/Chichen Itza/Tulum- Honduras has the ancient ruins of Copan, the ancient Omoa castle, and other archeological sites. Mexico may have its beaches, so does Honduras: the three Bay Islands: Roatan, Utila and Guanaja. Little French Key, Mahogany Bay, West Bay, Isla Las Almejas, Cayos Cochinos. Plus a handful of gorgeous beaches like Puerto Cortes, La Ceiba, Tela, etc. Mexico may have waterfalls like in Chiapas, so does Honduras. like the tall Pulhaphanzak waterfall, Sabanagrande, and so many bodies of water in Francisco Morazan and Intibuca and throughout the Honduran republic. Mx may have Chapultepec lake, Hn has lake Yojoa. Mexico has Oaxaca, Honduras has Comayagua. Don't get me started on the food, dance, music, art, culture, etc. You'll never hear the end of it.
Heyyy do you happen to be related to Azalea Wiggins/Bodden? That’s my grandma. We’re coming down there from American in about two weeks and staying for the entire month of July
yo the best videos you don't glorified yourself like many vloggers with own selfies . you have the cam always showing the places and people .nice man your Spanish is perfect GOD BLESS YOU MAN
There is no rule ... So what if the vlogger is part of the scene or video? Hardly glorification, more like being connected to what is being produced. ONE LOVE !
Everybody got a perspective to show. Talking to the camera creates more interactivity with the viewer. But sometimes it's too much for sure, it's about balance really.
Roatan is famous for its amazing offshore reefs and perfectly suited for both new and advanced divers. It's a well-known destination for coral gardens, shipwrecks such as the Odyssey and Aguila, sharks and all sorts of fish, but it's also famous for encountering the largest fish in the sea: the majestic whale sharks
You chose the right destination. I am so proud to be Honduran and this is one of the Honduran gems. Also mainland Honduras is beautiful. Its waterfalls like Pulhaphanzak. Other waterfalls and bodies of water in Francisco Morazan, colonial towns like Comayagua, and of course: modern metropolis like San Pedro Sula and the Honduran Capital: Tegucigalpa.
Oooooh man!!! I am SO glad you stopped and spoke with Douglas (4:50) at the Tijuana Style taco place!!! His food is delicious! Everything is fresh and the tortillas are even made to order. Make sure you ask for his special sauce. A little goes a long way because it's spicy but totally worth it. The Melon (watermelon) juice is good too.
I'm new on this channel, greetings from Costa Rica...I like this kind of videos , I haven't seen a Tourist or traveler vlogger with this type of format in POV until Now.. so I hope ur channel keeps growing
Roatan is the best. Had such a good experience. The ship that brings tourists was delayed a day so there was no crowd literally about 15 people and Caribe Tesoro hooked it up with a suite. Make sure to check them out.

Honduras women are very very attractive.Great skin nd bodies with Nice faces to go with it.Not talked about as much as other countries where I think the women are overrated while They are underrated.
Love the video! We fell in LOVE with Roatan… love the West End. We actually went to some of those restaurants while there. The East side, less developed, but SO BEAUTIFUL and RELAXING! We actually became PADI Diver Certified while there at Octopus Dive School!!
Almost 50% of Hondurans understand or speak English. the Honduran Caribbean coast and the Bay Islands were once part of the British Empire. Honduras is a multicultural and multilingual country. 🇭🇳❤️🇭🇳
West bay is a lot calmer for family oriented and west end for party town!! Singles and having fun! I wills be in Roatan in a couple of days. I go back every year..
just came to say you couldn't have put a better title for this video. yes we are primarily a english speaking island, but our culture on the island is completely different from the mainland, we got that caribbean sauce that the rest of the caribbean islands have. God bless fam
I'm go there 5 times for diving. At this video place, west end, its good for eating but for more quiet place it's Sandy bay the best...7 min in taxi for this video place.
saw some videos horse riding in ocean ...they go almost waist deep and go up to looks like island then go back to beach area ...is it havana beach or adventure but thought they were out of business ....west end?
Hahaha, just randomly came across this, and had to think "did I do a video?!?". Obviously not, but A) I grew up being called Sly (still do by some friends) and B) I live in Roatán. So not a big stretch. Anyway, great video!
I love Roatan! I've been a few times, and can't wait to come back! I love the chocolate shop and that botanical gardens at Carambola! I'm coming back this fall to snorkel some more if you have any recommendations for restaurants or hidden beach snorkeling spots. I usually stay around Sandy Bay
Roatan was really nice when I visited on a cruise about 10 years ago. We stayed on West Bay and zip lined through the jungle area. I’m definitely going back after watching this video minus the cruise ship.
Great to see you having a good time. The bay islands can overwhelm you the first time there. There are two other islands besides Roatan. Utila and guanaja are nearby. Also dozens of beautiful smaller cayes. Cayo cochinos has the best food. Authentic Garifuna cuisine. Hard to believe people believe on such small islands, but they do. Roatan has the strongest west Indian feel. They sound like Jamaicans to me. That's how diverse Honduras is. Find french key, a must. Roatan was a pirate haven. Still has modern day pirates. You will see them in the bars. Take your time and enjoy.
because our country always say bad things about honduras. sorry its not fair but its true. so people in usa probably dont know how very beautiful honduras is.
Determination is highly needed to survive, What most people see at a glance wealth, a great career, purpose is the result of hard work and hustle over time, we all need make moves now..
@8:00 massage - $20 for 15 minutes or $130 for 60 minutes?? That makes no sense mathematically as you can get 4 15 minute massages for $20 x 4 = $80 LOL!
Love Roatan, just wish there would be more Garífuna culture in West Bay and West End. Didn’t hear any Punta the entire time I was there. When you go to Jamaica you hear Reggae, Soca in the Bahamas. Roa seems to want to keep it limited to the Eastern End of the island. Don’t hide it please.
You will find more Garífunas on the coast of mainland Honduras. Bay Islanders are descendants of British colonists, therefore we have a different culture than Garífunas and we speak English.
Roatan has a lot of English speakers because English is our first language. We learn Spanish in school. (Spanish is spoken on the mainland). The Spanish speaking people that you see all came from the mainland. My mother barely knows any Spanish at all, as for most of the older generations.
There's one not far from there up by The Drunken Sailor and 2 by the gas station a couple blocks or so east of there but any of the ones in West End may or may not be working at any given time. Your best bet are to load up at the airport. There's about 3 or 4 there now. Tip: There is a store(I can't remember the name) north of the chocolate factory and south of Half Moon Bay on the NON-beach side that has a "Cash Back" sign in the window. If you go in there you can do a "transaction" and get however many Lempiras you need back.
The Bay Islands are English speaking islands. Mainland Honduras is where Spanish is spoken. The people that you see in this video that are speaking Spanish immigrated from the mainland. The vast majority speak English and Spanish is our second language. If you go to the East end of the Island, you will barely hear any Spanish, especially from the older generations as they only speak English.
One the best kept secrets in the world. Been going to Honduras 🇭🇳 for last 10 years the people are wonderful ❤️. I love the mainland as well.
how does it compare to mexico
You will always be welcome 🇭🇳💪🏼♥️

i spent a 5 week working vacation on Roatan a while back, they had a little tattoo shop in west end behind a couple of dive shops , great place
Omg I have never been. Next time Im in my home I will go. Truly paradise ❤️
Almost 50% of Hondurans understand or speak English. the Honduran Caribbean coast and the Bay Islands were once part of the British Empire. Honduras is a multicultural and multilingual country. 🇭🇳❤️🇭🇳
Good one!! The next time I'm over there. I have to visit the west end
I was there in April, I visited West Bay and West End , next time I'll try Little French Key 😊
Love that it is still some what low key! Enjoy!
Fantastic video! Thank you for sharing 🙏

Go to La Sirena and West Bay
I have been to Roatan 2 times by cruise ship and its a gem
Welcome to our country, I hope you have a pleasant time there, enjoy yourself.

Nice place
There is everything
What a beautiful sunny day!❤😀👍👍
Loving Honduras!! Thanks for these!
I was there in 1985. No cruise ships then. It's so different now.

Sylvia, how's Honduran people ? answer me from the bottom of your heart
@@thewolf81lobo86 for the most part, very nice people. Just like anywhere..
Heading to Roatan for 12 days later this month for the 2nd time. Can't waaaait!
Welcome to our wonderful country ❤ 🇭🇳🇭🇳🇭🇳🇭🇳

Hey Sly, if you purchase some beers at a local convenience store are you allowed to walk and drink them in public? Thanks in advance.
You needed to go to Little French Key. There's a beautiful exotic animal zoo , beautiful beach ..
Why you won’t believe??? Honduras has nice places my amigo, enjoy!
because our country always say bad things about honduras. sorry its not fair but its true. so people in usa probably dont know how very beautiful honduras is.
I think Sly's use of the phrase /you won't believe/ is more meant in amazement, unexpected and not in disbelief.
ONE LOVE !
I'm in USA living in Roatan. West end is one of my favorite places to go. West Bay is way to expensive
Nice place to chill out!
Paradise and laid back.
You are living the life my man. Now I have to Roatan on the list now. Well it was already on the list from my boy Norm but he didn't show too much.
Going to Utila also?
Great video! I'll be out there in 2 months!
Damn the massage was HIGH Nice trip bro
I did enjoy this
Looks amazing..what month did you visit
Determination is highly needed to survive, What most people see at a glance wealth, a great career, purpose is the result of hard work and hustle over time, we all need make moves now..
You have to check out La Placita in West Bay many great restaurants and great prices
Beautiful place
Nice vid, what camera are you using for filming?
Did that massage lady say 15 mins for 20 dollars or 120 for an hour or did I hear that wrong lol
It's like something is better than nothing $20 are $20.
That looks amazing
From Honduras with LOVE hooray.
@8:00 massage - $20 for 15 minutes or $130 for 60 minutes?? That makes no sense mathematically as you can get 4 15 minute massages for $20 x 4 = $80 LOL!
Lol 🤭😂 I thought the same thing.
$50 tip
Sly with the contentttt, thanks for the hard work man
How were the beaches and vibes different from west end to west bay? Did you have a preference between the 2? Good videos!
You got me when you was walk by half moon bay blinde guy
Do you still get the Sargassum there?
Love Roatan, just wish there would be more Garífuna culture in West Bay and West End. Didn’t hear any Punta the entire time I was there. When you go to Jamaica you hear Reggae, Soca in the Bahamas. Roa seems to want to keep it limited to the Eastern End of the island. Don’t hide it please.
he ido a las playas de omoa un 1 de enero y ellos estaban tocando y bailando es bueno saber que no lo hacen solo por turistas
You will find more Garífunas on the coast of mainland Honduras. Bay Islanders are descendants of British colonists, therefore we have a different culture than Garífunas and we speak English.
Ugh man I miss it so much there
Ven a la ciudad de la esperanza rico clima
Hey ! Qhat about Mahogany Bay !
What is the name of the restaurant where the man said that you can do karaoke?
Happy Harry’s Hideaway
Nice
Another great video, looks like a real cool chill out spot.
Roatan has a lot of English speakers because English is our first language. We learn Spanish in school. (Spanish is spoken on the mainland). The Spanish speaking people that you see all came from the mainland.
My mother barely knows any Spanish at all, as for most of the older generations.
I love this island looks Caribbean saw Trinidad and Tobago flag 🇹🇹
Because their ancestors arrived to the island from Trinidad 🇹🇹
man said they got that fire, I perked up like a meerkat
Interesting and picturesque. Thank you
My favorite place in the world… you totally missed the Booty Bar & Splash Inn
2:39 after the explanation you still had no clue what the launcher did. LOL . Are there ATM's in that area. ?

@@PST_Dreams thank you.
Roatan looks interesting! It seems like quite a few people speak some English there!
The majority speak English on the island
Remember we used to be British, returned back to Honduras in late 18 hundreds, we had to learn Spanish in the 60’s when I was growing up
A lot of mainlanders have immigrated to the islands that’s why there is more Spanish speakers
The Bay Islands are English speaking islands. Mainland Honduras is where Spanish is spoken. The people that you see in this video that are speaking Spanish immigrated from the mainland.

Why not? You went to San Pedro sula, and never asked for nice Places, only went yo mercados, the same in Tegucigalpa.
come to copan
Massage lady's hustle was strong.
I could use resting in one of those hammocks or Launch Chairs on the beach...
I'm honduran living in USA. I'm going to Roatan next month. I've been in Roatan before, but do you have any recomendations? 🇭🇳
Camp Bay Beach, West Bay, Gumbalinda Park, La Sirena 🧜♀️
Seagrape Plantation Resort in West Bay...very nice spot...
La placita in West Bay.
Amazing Views Roatan 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
How much is the water taxi?
Bueno stuff
Good morning Sly we are there with you lol.. sunny day!
