Bay Islands; which island is best?

[CODMAN]

Try to go earlier rather than later in that time span, November is getting close to rainy season. October is a good bet to avoid both Hurricanes and torrential rain. Roatan has the shark dive while Utila has more Whale sharks. Rays and Turtles are common on both islands. Roatan certainly has a batter diversity of large fish such as grouper - As long as people stop ordering it in Restaurants!

hey Bay,
I checked out your site and it was very informative!

Thanks!

Check out Utila, its off the beaten track somewhat but for my money, the ONLY bay island to visit.

Stayed at Colibri Hill resort: www.colibri-resort.com - Excellent!

Dived with DeepBlue: www.deepblueutila.com - Superb, wouldn't dive with any other operation on the island....and they have the best whale shark captain on the Island -respect to Gringo!!

Social life? Dived four times a day, ate then slept - that's what I was there for ;o)

If you wanna see what the diving is like, check out my vid on www.myspace.com/shurford

PS - bring some kick-*** sand fly repellant - but really!!
