Best time to visit Honduras

The dry season (February to June) is the most popular time to visit Honduras, due to better opportunities to spot the marine wildlife of the Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean. During this period, crowd levels will be at their highest, and the same goes for the price of accommodation. To get favourable weather conditions, fewer crowds and cheaper hotel rates, visit Honduras between May and early June. The period around early June sits just ahead of the peak of the wet season (late-June to November), ensuring that the number of tourists will decrease. This will give you the welcome opportunity to discover the beautiful country of Honduras at your own pace!

South African passport holders will need a passport that must be valid for at least three months from the departure date. No visa is required for visiting Honduras for up to 90 days.

Other diseases that you should beware of when visiting Honduras include hepatitis A, typhoid, hepatitis B, malaria, Zika and rabies. Yellow fever is not a risk in this country, but the local government does require you to provide proof that you have received the necessary vaccinations if you are coming from a country where this disease is a risk.
