Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day comes from Crystal Johnson and is a place near and dear to my heart, the Mangrove Tunnel in Jonesville Point. If you haven’t taken the boat ride here and perhaps jumped in for a swim in the swimming hole at the other end, you really haven’tContinue reading “September 28, 2024”

Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day come from Elena Gonzalez and shows a rainbow coming from the ghost ship at the bay shared with Galaxy Wave and Mahogany Bay.

Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day comes from Joe Byrne in Punta Blanca and if I had to name it, I would call it “Hope on the Horizon.” We can see a line of rain-making cumulus clouds which means the return of rain to our parched islands. We aren’t going to getContinue reading “May 31, 2024”

Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day comes from Sandy Soboy, taken on a weekend trip she took to Guanaja on a trip on Galaxy Wave. The Galaxy Wave ferry to Guanaja is a great opportunity for residents of Roatan and Utila to visit the farthest island. I’ve met so many island nativesContinue reading “April 16, 2024”
