Honduras has some of Central America's best-kept secrets, from the Bay Islands with their world-class diving to the Mayan ruins of Copán and the remote highland interior.

There, the main plug types A and B are used and the standard supply is 110 V at 60 Hz. In most cases you will not need a travel adapter if your plugs match the local socket type. Most modern devices support 100–240 V.

Tip Honduras uses type A and B flat-pin sockets. On the Bay Islands, power supply can occasionally be unstable. Keeping a power bank charged is a good habit, particularly if you rely on your phone for navigation or maps while snorkeling between dive sites.
