Where are we staying

We are staying at Utopia Dive Village, an “off the beaten path vacation retreat”. The hotel is built on the edge of an abundant reef, a twenty-minute boat ride from the nearest and only town on the tiny island of Utila, off the coast of Honduras. The biggest focus is on personal service. Utopia’s staff is friendly, outgoing and eager to make your stay the best it can be. Utopia’s number one motto is “You arrive as guests and leave as friends!”

Where are we diving

Utila, the smallest of the Bay Islands, offers a wide variety of easily accessible dive sites with varying underwater terrains.  Sitting at the edge of the largest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere, Utila’s waters are teaming with colorful marine life.  Utila has over 100 charted dive sites which include sea mounts, shallow fringing reefs and plunging walls that circumnavigate the Cayman Trench.

How are we getting there

We will fly out of Omaha and into Roatan.  From Roatan is a short flight to Utilla Island.
