With its magnificent natural setting midway round the Bahía de Tela, surrounded by sweeping beaches, Tela should be a dream getaway. The town is a magnet for Hondurans and young European travellers alike, and though the police have reined in some of the gangs of would-be lotharios, there remains something of a seedy undercurrent about the place that can either add to its charm or bring a sense of unease, depending on your point of view. However you feel about Tela itself, the wealth of fantastic natural reserves within just a few kilometres of the town make it well worth a visit. Hotels in Tela |
