What's up friends? I am Joel Seoane we are here today in the in the department of Islas de la Bahía precisely in the municipality of Utila it is my first time here in this place , and if you saw the previous video, I showed you how to get there until you are Utila and in this video, as you have already seen, I am going to show you what activities you can do, which places you should visit they are those places you cannot miss if you are thinking of coming to Utila. See, this is the main street Utila I'm done To buy this shirt, ugh, a turtle there solid solid here is a store where they have everything , like this, it cost me three hundred and fifty lempiras, but there are others, for example, those that don't have sleeves, they're worth two hundred and fifty lempiras, one hundred lempiras less. So, I invite you so that you can stay in this video, right now We're just going to go buy a tour to get to know a callus. My guide, Marcos, accompanies me here, if you saw him, previous video, you already met him, how is Marcos doing? All good, all. All good, can I go to the Key now? Sure. A complete beauty in a row. Is named. We took the GoPro here to record the reef. So . This is a gas station, see, it's called Bush Gas Station. And it has just one pump and they put gasoline on it motorcycle. There are three gas stations here in Utila as well as that bomb. There is one that is the largest, let's say it has a three pumps and the rest are like this. Gas stations a little small. These are gasoline prices. Gasoline cent fifty-seven lempiras per gallon and diesel one hundred per thirty-six. And well, we are already here in the small dock where we're going out. Just see the water here. This is the water that is just on the dock. See what cute are those little fish. Clarita, clarita, completely crystalline. Well, he's our captain today, her name is Dennis, the one we're leaving. Water. If I throw myself around here. See how the color changes, here it looks more blue, like turquoise blue, there is dark blue. And that's not we see or left the dock. I imagine how the water is going to be there in those pipes. Well, we go out, we go out. There goes Denis, our captain today. The compass and the screen, how us the way. It takes about ten minutes more or less to get here. look how cute this is. We are getting to see see, see the the color of the water. Blue, well, I don't know how many there is here. I see like eight colors of water me. See, what a beauty. There as it looks like seagrass, then here it is like sand blues, there is another color of sand. How nice, that's Water Kate. There are two more keys over there. My guide tells me here how there are thirteen roosters in total. Thirteen roosters. What is the most big? Larger is Cayo Paloma. Cayo Paloma. Here there is main key. Where the townspeople live. It's Callus bigger. Second and third my guide is born here in Utila gringo then has a Honduran identity card yes it Honduran eleven zero four. Eleven zero four, born here Utila. Well people, I'm walking here through or in Spanish, the callus of water. Hey, I'm impressed, I am in love with the hue of the sea here. They tell me that the reef that is around this callus is a beauty. As Dennys said, our guide today had more of two hundred people on this key, and see all the rubbish that they left. Lots of beer cans, beer bottles, more beer over there. If you who are watching me, they like to suck, they like to drink. If they come to a place tourist and they bring things to drink, please take them garbage. There's just one house, I think there's a family that the ones who take care of the key are, but they're not the ones responsible for cleaning up the rubbish here. So, if you do that, you are giving people a job here, or they're tempting this trash to end up in the sea and ends up destroying the coral reef. So I only know I leave them there as a reflection. If you come in a more of a tourist spot when you're so close to the sea. And they bring disposable things, bottles, cans, bags. Because favor, take that, don't leave it here, because that doesn't give you it is good for the ocean, it is not good for creation. Marco, he can't stand it. Take the mask there in the hand already, ready to snorkel. I just flew the drone here, one looks impressive from the air, it looks gorgeous. Me they say that where Marco is walking right now, I they call that , the pool, which is pachito, the water reaches for the knees, a little below the knee, and then there's a drop that's about fifty feet deep. If not many of them can swim in, they don't recommend to you that Hagan, we are going to change the camera, we are going to submerge here about the depths of the Honduran Caribbean Sea. We're going to spend to this little camera, to the GoPro, this is the second barrier of greatest choral emotion in the world, only below the coral reef that is in Australia. We change the camera, and we are going to record that beauty. But what beauty. What are you counting boy? I'm ready here with my mask, my tube to breathe. My tantrums to kick. And also a vest him because I'm not that good of a swimmer. This is Honduras people. This is Utila. This is Bay Islands. We have a beautiful country. take care of it This is what you give call the pool. See the sand. Very soft. And well, where they look dark, there it is very deep, so we have to show going to be careful here. See right here where I am standing right now right here where I'm pointing with my hand there is a star I think there is , look at the camera, see, it's bigger than the other one we saw, before. The truth. We have seen star. We saw the ones that I showed you at the beginning. Then we saw another. And here's another but it's supposedly good, yes. It is the greatest of all the ones we've seen. It is interesting to think how are you star comes this far. Since they have little feet. Many times they make the effort of one to get here only for someone to catch them take it out and, unfortunately, they die. If you ever are not in the sea and they see a star. I know that the them want to grab it. It sucks for the stars because later, although at the moment they die, in the near future, that star that you touched, they are going to die. We are in the dilemma if you can touch or no. Marcos has a theory, he says that they explained it to him in a museum for us, what did they explain to you? Let's see. In the museum of Tela Marín, . They explained to me that the star expresses itself by taking out the the water. So, you can but in the water and without making one with chemicals in hand like sunscreen, solar me. That one is used to throwing oneself into one's hand and then applying to the body. There they explained to me that yes you can touch but totally natural and inside the water. You can't get take. Okay, they also explained the same thing to me, but by everything, and we're not going to touch it. It is so beautiful stars. Right now I think it's not star season. All on the day that it is not star season. But we found one with luck. We found a lucky star here. In water there. Look here we stop because below us when below the sand, but the shore is full of corals, the brains, are like that, huge, no, like that, like that, and the fans, these corals that are like art horns, like fans, are huge. How nice. No, people, I'm in love with this callus. , a beauty. The reef that is here around this callus is definitely cool. Right now we're to go to another place called Neptuns that also has highly recommended. I think we're going to eat there. Well, we we're going to take a photo and then we're off to Neptun. Yes they want to see all those photos. I invite you to Instagram there appear and share. So mere. Like traveling on Instagram there you will see all these photos that we are taking here. That of that is not grass, it is a school of fish. See that there is the main key Cayo Paloma and Cayo Joya. My guide tells me that there are about eight churches on that key and a bar. In other words, there are more churches there than a bar says that it is something that is not very common here. Fishing. Fishing. okay okay See those are the garages that they use here as the cars are then the garages are on the water. So, they put the boat like this and then suspend it with a rope to up in the air. See, see, see, see. Just as that 's there, see? It's up in the air. Every house and have their own garage. And I'm looking at this next to here there are many luxury houses. Well three houses from flats. Very nice houses, really. I imagine that they are from a people who have a lot of money have already served us. Well friends, we have reached Neptun, our lunch. Here in Neptun you can also to snorkel and well I ordered some garlic shrimp here. They have a price of three hundred and twenty-five this dish like this, with potatoes, shrimp, and a green salad. Mmm, what a delight, dropped the fork, it doesn't matter. oh Very good indeed. Well Here's Marco, he bought a hamburger. Is it good, Marco? Very rich, really. Well, then, I'm going to have lunch me here. Bon appetit for you if you are eating, I am going to finish eating these shrimp, which are tasty. Right now I have moved here to the Utila pier this is at the public dock where the ferries come, for example me yesterday I arrived here at this pier here the ferries come from Ceiba and for the ferries also come from Roatán. And the ferries too they leave from here for Roatán and for Ceiba. There are no ferries to Guanaja only for Roatán and Ceiba. Right now they are already , one in the afternoon, around three in the afternoon, more or less, comes does not fit here, so there are people here who already have a with their suitcases almost waiting for the ferry to arrive to go from here to La Ceiba. See that everything, everything, all this are here, the pier, the ferry parks here, people get goes down this platform, we on that boat that is stopped there, just that, it was the one we were on right now and look at this, here the water is so clean that people bathe anywhere, people bathing there with all trust because the water is completely clean. And that's it. to admirable, because not all cities do that. You can example, there are cities here in Honduras that are close mar, where you can't swim like that, in sea water, in front of where the business is, because he water is on the other hand here in Utila the water is clean in any place where you want to swim. And look here, you can buy the tickets and you are going to travel for for Roatan. Utila, which is the agency that owns them ferries from here to Roatan. And here behind me is the only bank on the island which is Banco Atlántida. Look, I have surprised Banco Atlántida. He is the only one here in Utila , and it was the only bank that I also saw there Mosquitia. It's a pity that in my city he doesn't have cash, he , but here it is the only one that is. See, here's another sign, this one is a photographic inn, says he has a fish there, the marlin, and he also has the the Honduran flag there in my heart. And well, behind these letters, behind the U, is what we were seeing, which is municipal beach. Chepas Beach. Here on the island people take mobilizes in these carts. golf cart And then our today's designated driver. He's a bit burnt from making snorkel. Oh, see, there are also motorcycle taxis. They say that there are some few cars, right? Big cars. Like two or three large cars. And they are not that big, they are like little eggs. They are small, yes. And what is that for? Let's see. the streets, I think, because of the size. They are narrow, so , many large cars do not travel. There's barely room for one of these. Right, golf ones are the most common. The ferry from Roatán to Utila a Hilux three point zero. No. If they are soccer fans, another place that you should visit here in Utila is the municipal Frank Morgan. See, just today that we are visiting, he is in full because he started three days ago a bureaucratic league tournament here in Utila it's called Liga Utileña Leonel Hernández in honor of a boy who is there in the photo stadium that apparently died. Look, the stadium is that grandstand that you are seeing there in front and also It has this other grandstand that is on this side. And well, the field is not have the official measures of FIFA is a little more small players here, but they do play here, eleven-player teams. See, that's the goal. It is noted that the mesh is new new. Because two days ago the league was just finished and you see this can be a bit dangerous since they are using as much as you can using the land you have then here, there is only about a meter and a half maybe away and if player who comes in a race and can collide here and, well, hurt. We are here with Dani Turcios, he is a representative of the municipality of Utila and get he is also in charge of the work that is being carried out on here in the stadium. Dani, what are they doing specifically here? Well, as the previously you are in a complete remodeling of do you what is the municipal stadium, one of the principal of the mayor, Alex Iván, who has taken good , because maintaining the stadium will be an occasion because fences are changing with painting on the ceiling, also the grandstand, among other details that eh is being done to the stadium as being eh the improvement of fully equipped dressing rooms, also in the the restrooms and about a month ago the man mayor had already mentioned, he invested in what is the lighting of this one, . It is played on Saturdays and Sundays on weekends, and invites all of this beautiful municipality, the same, visitors who come from outside are also welcome to enjoy sports here on the beautiful island of Utila, here in Utila they practice baseball more than the soccer. In fact, right now the Honduran national team is the competing in a tournament that they are doing in Puerto Rico and there are several people from here from Utila who are competing in this tournament representing the Honduran national team. He is the only one here on the island and well, the new one is municipality is already leaving. Over there by the dock is the old building. But this is the new building. New municipality, see, see these are the mascots of the island of Utila they have the tail cutting off the iguana as far as I can get, the going up, it won't let me get too close. And well now we go going up one place here another of the attractions and you are coming Utila a jungle that you can also visit another iguana see. This smallest. Look at her. There are many iguanas here suddenly walk down the street and see that something is moving and they are iguanas that are passing from one side to the other. I told them to . Another attraction here in Utila is something called the lighthouse. You on a mountain, the mountain that is in Utila, and well, there in the mountain there is a lighthouse. Apparently the lighthouse is no longer in It works but people use it to get on and use it as a watcher. So we're going up here right now. A small hill. Look at that behind me. It's a hotel. They are finishing it. In a few months it will be completely ready. Four-story see. Well, one day it come here. They can stay there. They come here, it is possible see the sea there. The Honduran Caribbean Sea, what a beauty. See that little house over there. There they were looking for sea turtles this morning but we can't find it and Marco tells me what here is the highest point. National Geographic Institute from Honduras says don't destroy it. But he does not say How many meters are we right? One thousand four hundred and ninety and four meters. That's one thousand four hundred and ninety-four. Funk. what a heat Oh but here the wind blows. Not a wind cool. A very nice wind. And here we are in the the highest point in Utila. At one thousand four hundred and ninety-four meters above sea level. I don't think we're going to that height the truth because there is the sea. And we are here, I don't know, maybe this means something else, maybe it's the year but what is true is that we are at the highest point, not a know how many meters but it is the highest point perhaps I calculate sixty meters or maybe fifty, I don't know, I'm not so good at calculating, but over there, look at this jungle, we're in are anticipating this is a jungle eh you could call tropical area I don't know why it is a jungle of these plants that They look like palm trees, see the leaf as it is, it's very cool here it blows a lot of wind. We arrive at the lighthouse we arrive at we lighthouse. This is the famous lighthouse of Utila see. I don't know how many meters . . I am calculating How much do you think I have? Framework. Between fifteen and twenty meters high. What does it say. Eighteen it has meters. Eighteen says exactly. Yes. I say that seventeen point five meters. But we are going to upload it, we are going to upload it. Let's see, if we're not scared, let's go upstairs. We are in the middle. We are in the middle, you see, here in this a little hole, there you can see the beach, the sea. We arrived Marco, we arrived. Little tired, but we arrived. Sung, okay? It's scary, people. I'm here, it's been too long wind. Here comes Ana. Come on Ana. Oops. Four steps, four Ana, four. How many times have you been up here Marcos? The second time. Second. Second time. First time. First time. there are some sailboats, look at those little sailboats, I think they're going to Roatán. Well the Meli. We are there we are. This isn't the best time to come up here. It's almost five in the afternoon. It's blowing a lot of wind but a lot of wind I have a bit of fear, the truth, but we're fine here, this lighthouse wiggles, because of the wind, we wanted to fly the drone from up here, but , it will be impossible because there is too much wind and my drone is very small. And from up here you can see everything, people there is the airport here in Utila and that one that looks there is the runway and the planes take off from there. The beach municipal is what you see there more or less is the beach municipal. And well, this is another attraction, another one activities you can do if you come to Utila, if you don't have it, I'm afraid of heights, that is, come to the lighthouse, the I recommend that you come in the morning better, that there is not much wind. Here the entrance is free, they only have to walk for a while, and make me want to go up here. Wow, people, we just lowered the lighthouse. I'm sweating feet, and I don't know why they're sweating, it's scary, oh oh oh look at the number of crabs that run here, run, run, they run, crabs started to come out, there are about ten crabs, they go in a herd, look, this is a little baby, ah look at these people, some motorcycle, some car ran over him. It is the danger they run when they go out into the street at this hour. That's why I told them that they can't walk at night in the street. We've already seen several, like four, five like that, gutted. Because here some cars pass, a motorcycle, ATV, then, maybe they are not careful and they above.
