How would one get to Roatan easiest and cheapest from Ambergris Caye? I can only find Taca airlines and it is expensive...any cheaper alternatives?

I've asked that question before and no one seems to know how to do it. I guess I am going to have to do it once...and if I'm not killed I can tell the story!! In truth there is a water taxi from Placencia to Puerto Cortes? in Hondurus.....taxi to the airport and fly to Roatan...but my hope is that there is a water taxi from Punta Gorda to Puerto Cortes...(about 2 hours shorter trip on the water) and then taxi to the airport and on to Roatan..

you can always come to Dangriga and catch the boat directly to Puerto Cortes from here.

It goes every Saturday.

Yes, I am also interested in getting information on this as I have thought of combining a Belize/Honduras trip. When in Placencia last year, I heard there was a boat that left from there as well, but forgot to follow up and get information - having too much fun!

I've checked out that Placencia to Honduras ferry....it's a 5 hour trip in open ocean! That is why I was hoping to find a ferry from Punta Gorda...a little less painful. I know that Ricks' (bartender at Crazy Canuck's) wife is from Punta Gorda....maybe he will know more.

I am sorry, I made an error. I flew Continental to Honduras and returned on them from Belize. It did not cost anymore at that time than flying to and from the same destination.

I flew TACA for $140 at that time from San Pedro Sula, Honduras-Belize City. They still offer that flight.
