Anyone knows if one can take a bike on a ferry from la cieba to roatan at this point in time (2010)? The older threads seem to suggest leaving the bike on the mainland. Did this change?

There is a long time since I was there, but first of all, Central America is a great place to drive a bike. The last trip I did was 35000 km, on a xt 600, from LA in the North to Panama in the south, and return. People are truly nice, and if you need, they have good mechanics all over.

The city you are referring to in Honduras is called La Ceiba. Its a nice medium size town on the coast, with the general problems of crime and drugs.

There was no ferry-crossing over to Utilla, most people are flying, and it takes about five minutes. :-)

I kept my bike in the Dutch guys place on the beach, but dont know if it still excists, or how safe it is.

If you go there, have a couple of s on the Bucket of Blood. Love the place.

Cheers
Haakon

I too was looking for an answer to this question so I contacted the Safeway Maritime Ferry company. This the reply I got.

"Good morning,
Yes we do transfer motorcycles and there is a fee but it depends on the size of your motorcycle, it can vary from $40.00 to $50.00. Hope this information helps!!

Have a great day!"

I received a quick response from the ferry company (within 24hrs). I hope this information helps someone else.

Yes, you absolutely can ferry your bike across for $50. I was there but decided to not wait 24hr. to do it. You can also have secure parking at the port complex if you want to leave the bike. There are allot of english speaking people at this port also.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
