Texas

Texas is one of the best dive sites in Honduras. The two currents that join the island on the western tip have created this spot. Because of the two currents, the diversity of marine life is sporadic, gorgeous, and different each time you dive here, and the ocean is inundated with schools of fish of all shapes and sizes. Around Texas is small leather jackets, starfish, gobbleguts and the occasional seahorse. The underwater terrain varies from jetty pylons to rocky reefs to seagrass beds. You'll have all kinds of company, including sea urchins, anemones, nudibranchs and blue-ringed octopuses.

The ocean is full of weird and wonderful creatures, and you just never know what you might find when you dip your head and swim even deeper under the surface. While much of the underwater world is beautiful, there is nothing more beautiful than a coral reef. In Texas, the coral reef is chock full of yellows, reds, oranges, pinks, blues, and more, and this reef even offers a wide selection of hard and soft coral for you to check out. It’s a true feast for the eyes, which is why so many people make this their diving spot each year.
