Isla de Roatán Travel Forum

I am traveling to Roatan on December 19 2006, and can not seem to find out how to book bus and ferry travel from San Pedro Sula
to the island.could someone please direct me to the right place?

Lonely Planet - "Central America on a Shoe String" has excellent tips on travel. Flights to Roatan from San pedro sula are $53 (Via La Ceiba), one way, or $16 to La Ceiba one way!

Hi Breeze,
To book the first class bus go to Hedman Alas website:
www.hedmanalas.com
When I made my reservations they wanted my passport number so be ready for that.
I can't find a website for the ferry but here's the schedule:
Roatan/La Ceiba 7:00 A.M.
La Ceiba/Roatan 9:30 A.M.
Roatan/La Ceiba 2:00 P.M.
La Ceiba/Roatan 4:30 P.M.
From what I've read on other websites they have a new 400 passenger ferry so reservations should not be necessary - I hope. I think it's $15 US each way.

Breeze -

The Lonely Planet air prices posted are about 5 years out of date. If you want to fly reserve through the Islena Airlines site at http://www.flyislena.com/ Their prices are what all of the locals airlines charge in-country (rates are controlled)

BK's information is correct and up to date on the bus and ferry. Generally reservations are not needed for either (showing up an hour a head of time is usually sufficient)

Have fun!
