Cochinos Cays (Cayos Cochinos)

Off the coast of northern Honduras, the Cochinos Cays, a protected marine sanctuary, consist of two main islands and 13 smaller sandbanks. These islands are home to the Indigenous Garífuna community, adding a rich cultural layer to the natural beauty. Despite being part of the Bay Islands, the cays’ ecology mirrors that of the mainland, with a diverse array of flora and fauna. Visitors can explore the unique blend of marine and island life, experiencing the vibrant culture and natural wonders that define this serene and ecologically significant destination.
