Where Is Utila?

All of the Bay Islands are in a region that marks the south end of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef System,
which is the second largest barrier reef system in the world. Because Utila provides excellent diving locations it has been known for years as the place to go for diving in Latin America.

Utila Town, which surrounds the coastline of the East Harbour, is the major population center for the island. The location of Utila is 16°06'N 86°56'W.
