Map of Honduras

Honduras

According to some theories, Honduras owes its name to the honduras (depths) of its Caribbean coast, which allowed ships to approach the shore without anchoring, and its navigators to reach on foot the second largest country in Central America. Its 112,490 km2 occupy mountains, valleys and jungles and are bounded by the Caribbean Sea to the north and the Pacific Ocean to the south. The second largest coral reef in the world runs through Honduras.
