most people go to utila because they’re interested in cheap, professional scuba diving. i went because my friend was. we ended up making lots of new friends, exploring the countryside, participating in a beach cleanup, and talking with the natives about pirates and the island’s history. you’ll want to check out the endemic iguanas as well and the iguana research station as well. a real paradise, and, as of early 2006, hardly touched by the more negative aspects of international tourism. without concerted conservation efforts, i fear the island will be spoiled by overpopulation and poor resource management. right now, ecotourism is not in the island’s vocabulary. hope you enjoy my pics. the green eel was a real treat! sorry no pics of them mating, which happened after i put the camera away

interesting it is
