Geo-Quiz June 2013
 Clue #1 These offshore islands of a Central American country feature award-winning dive sites where you can explore the world’s second-largest barrier reef and encounter every underwater species that lives in the Caribbean. |
 Clue #2 One of the two main islands is a backpacker's haven famous for its eclectic nightlife where conversations ripple in several languages. During the day, everyone heads to sea in hopes of spending some quality time with the biggest fish in the ocean, the whale shark, which can be seen year-round in these nutrient-rich waters. |
 Clue #3 Across a short stretch of water from these islands is the mainland, which is home to one of the most impressive Mayan ruins in the entire world, the ancient city of Copan. The mainland’s rainforests are home to the national bird, the scarlet macaw, as well as howler monkeys and the elusive jaguar. |

The Answer is: Honduras
Welcome to the Central American eco hotspot and dive Mecca of Honduras. On the mainland, you will find the impressive ancient ruins of Copan, known as the Paris of the Maya world because of its impressive, intact art. The primal forests of the central highlands are wrapped in a misty shroud of clouds and punctuated by the sounds of howler monkeys, the calls of the vividly colored scarlett macaw and the footprints of the jaguar.
Just offshore are the famous Bay Islands of Honduras, which were voted into the Big Animals and Value of Diving Dollar categories of Scuba Diving’s Top 100 Readers Choice Awards. The Bay Islands boast reefs that are home to every species of marine life found in the Caribbean.
Roatan, the largest of the three islands, is wrapped in numerous famous dives, such as Mary's Place and the CoCo View wall. In fact, two Roatan dive sites — Fish Den and the wreck of the El Aguila — were named to_Scuba Diving_’s Top 100 Gold List. At the Roatan Institute for Marine Science you can dive with dolphins or hop over to the sleepy island of Utila, one of the world's true whale shark hotspots. For edge-of-the-earth dive adventures, don't miss the third sister island of Guanaja, where the wreck of the Jado Trader awaits.
Honduras is a true destination of a lifetime, bursting with adventure and discovery. Explore this dream dive destination right now with our free Honduras Dive + Travel Guide.
