Tela and Punta Sal

Tela and Punta Sal

Tela is a sunny beach town on the northern Caribbean coast of Honduras. Right next to it is Punta Sal, a wild national park where the jungle meets the sea.

Tela is loved for its golden beaches, warm water, and the amazing Lancetilla botanical garden nearby. Boat trips to Punta Sal let visitors see monkeys, dolphins, and hidden coves all in one day.

Beaches

Tela has long soft beaches where the warm Caribbean waves are gentle and fun. Families spread out under palm trees to swim, play, and watch the sunset.

Punta Sal park

In this coastal park the rainforest grows right down to secret beaches and rocky points. Boat tours often see howler monkeys in the trees and dolphins leaping in the sea.

Botanical garden

The nearby Lancetilla garden is one of the biggest in the world, full of fruit trees and towering bamboo. Walking its shady paths, you can taste tropical fruits and hear many singing birds.
