Utila: paradise as it was intended! Whether you are on a back-packing tour to travel Central America or just on a short Caribbean vacation away from the busy office, the friendly island people will ensure your time spent on Utila will be a relaxing and delightful experience. With a reputation for world-class coral reef diving, it is no wonder divers from around the world come to Utila. The reefs are packed with life and the corals are in pristine condition. It is not uncommon for divers to play with manta rays, swim with dolphins and gasp with wonder as the biggest fish in the sea, the incredible whaleshark.
On Utila Island, the clear leader in dedicated dive vacations is the little over-water lodge located down a Victorian street lined with citrus and mango and garnished with spicy English accents. Utila Lodge offers the friendliest and most casual of vacation experiences. Utila Lodge is base station to WSORC (Whale Shark and Oceanic Research Center) and guests often participate in projects involving the study and preservation of the “biggest fish in the sea.”
