• Take advantage of the excellent hiking on offer in Pico Bonito National Park, near La Ceiba. It also offers spectacular scenery, steep slopes and numerous waterfalls.
• Go birdwatching in Honduras' premier destination, Lake Yojoa in the west of the country.
• Go spelunking in the Cuyamel Caves, near Trujillo. The caves have been used by various ethnic groups since pre-Colombian times. Hire a guide as they are well hidden but worth seeking out.
• Take a boat trip along the winding canals of the Cuero y Salado Wildlife Refuge, which provides a habitat for numerous animal species, including monkeys, alligators and manatees, and dozens of waterbirds.
• Try canopy touring: a series of cables are fixed from tree to tree and, attached to a pulley while wearing a harness, you can ‘fly' through the canopy of the rainforest.
• Reel them in! There is good fishing on both coasts and Lake Yojoa offers some of the best bass fishing in the world.
• Scuba-dive in the crystalline water and pristine coral reefs of the Bay Islands. The islands are one of the world's top certification destinations. For those already certified, there are courses in underwater photography, cave diving and instructor training.
• Experience some of Central America's best white-water rafting along the Cangrejal River, near La Ceiba.
