This photo is for our cruiser freinds. A wonderful stop between Omoa and Utila. It is called Lagoon Diamante or Tinto. From the approach the view is misleading leave the island in the center of the entrance to your port side. When you get close it becomes apparent that is where the deep water is. Any boat with 7ft or less draft can enter this lagoon and it is well worth it. A nice quiet spot and well protected. Do not try this entrance after dark or in raging seas we think it would be unwise.

Inside Lagoona Diamante as it is known in some cruising guides. Our charts called it Lagoona Tinto. This is Suenos Azul at anchor one of the four boats we were traveling with. She draws 7.2 feet and is a beautiful vessel a 52ft Amel Super Maramu owned by our friends Maude and Casper . We are anchored in 8 ft. A well protected and beautiful place to spend the night when traveling between Guatemala and the bay islands of Honduras. Approach 15.540 N 87.394W . Note the rocks to the right not to be entered from this side.

This is Martina's first swim in the ocean. She loved her swim with Daddy. Since this picture she has become a real pro.
