Thanks ken,
Tela is certainly not La Ceiba, which is in fact the third largest city in
Honduras. It's a small town. And, yes I am still looking for the reef out in
the bay. I have snorkled off Puntas Sal ( Jeanette Kawas National Park) and
there is the reef. Unfortunately it doesn't compare with the parts around
the bay islands. Turbidity is also an issue in the bay, particularly in the
afternoon, when the winds start up. But the bay is always good for swimming
with wild dolphins. They are out there every day, just 10 days ago I got as
close as 10 meters to a small pod.
