El Progreso is a busy farming and trade town near the Ulua River in northern Honduras. It grew around banana and sugar plantations and is a friendly stop between bigger cities.
You can visit the town's church, explore lively markets full of fresh fruit, and take short trips to the wide river and green farmland around it.
Sweet local bananas and fresh tropical fruit grow all around, and the markets are full of juicy treats to try.
The big Ulua River flows nearby, and the green farmland makes a peaceful place for a walk or a picnic.
