Lake Yojoa, Cortes Department, Honduras

It’s worth a trip
The lake is endless. We had fish in Margoths restaurant, fresh from the lake. And a beautifull view. I strongly recommend to visit this lake. It’s beautifull and not disturbed by boats or harbors. If you like nature and a great scene with mountains and rainforest around the sea, this is the place to visit beside the Islas de Bahia in Honduras.

Natural Beauty of Honduras
Lake Yojoa is a beautiful area, with a number of towns along its shore. If travelling between San Pedro and Tegucigalpa this destination is a great idea to break up the trip. We stayed in Agua Azul, a small village around 9km away from the larger town Pena Blanca. To get to these areas you can take a bus from San Pedro/Tegus that stops off at La Guama. From there you can take a taxi or Tuk Tuk to other areas. There are a number of hotel and hostel options around the lake and there are a number of activities such as canoeing on the lake, bird Watching or visiting waterfalls that you can do.

Beautiful mountain lake
We visited the region for 5 days and had a great time. The lake is beautifully nestled in rain forrest mountains. Water quality is moderate (not crystal clear blue). Air is also hazy due to amount of trash and other things burning. Boat or kayaking the lake is a great activity. There is a great river walk/feed area to the lake at Los Naranjos. There is also a park there that's free to enter and walk. Recommend for a half day activity.
