Forested mountains partly covered by clouds in Pico Bonito.

Reserves, river, beach
and museum

The Cuero y Salado Wildlife Refuge’s foundation offers bookings for visits; Pico Bonito National Park has unconfirmed status. The Cangrejal River runs through the park and the Nombre de Dios range, with grade 2, 3 and 4 rapids for rafting with guides, according to Visit Honduras; rafting is done with operators, and Omega Tours lists a half day at US$60 per person, which is the price of its service, not an entry fee. Sambo Creek, a Garífuna village with a beach 15 km from La Ceiba according to Visit Honduras, is where most of the boats to Cayos Cochinos leave from, according to La Prensa (March 2026). On UNAH’s CURLA campus, the Entomological Museum holds about 15,000 insect specimens; its hours and fee are old figures (Visite Atlántida, 2020), unconfirmed with CURLA
