On my upcoming dive trip I plan to spend some time in Placencia before heading over to Roatan, but I'm not finding a ton of information online for getting to Roatan easily. I really dont want to hop and skip from Placencia down to Independence, Punta Gorde, Puerto Barrious or Puerto Cortes, to LeCeiba, to Roatan....with all my stuff and dive gear over the course of a day and a half.
I read somewhere that there is a ferry from Placencia to Puerto Cortes, but that it only travels there on Fridays at 9:30am for $50 (US?). I would love to take this ferry, but the timing doesn't work, at all! If it's even accurate. Ill be arriving in Placencia on a Thursday, and want to leave on Sunday. I could even stay till Monday morning if it was possible to get to Roatan that same night.
Any help would be much appreciated!
