The Honduras most travelers actually visit
Honduras for visitors is rarely the whole country. It's Roatán for diving and a Caribbean week, Copán Ruinas for a day or two among Maya stelae, and a transit through San Pedro Sula or Tegucigalpa to get between them. The interior — the pine-covered Lempira mountains, the Lenca villages around Gracias — is a thinner traveler track. Connectivity changes between these segments, and an eSIM lets you stop thinking about it at every leg.
Roamzy charges $2.66 per gigabyte in Honduras, billed in real time at $0.0026 per megabyte. No subscription, no expiry, no minimum bundle. One per-MB rate across 192 countries is the shape of the invoice, not a marketing line.
How much will Roamzy actually cost on this trip?
A typical visitor uses 0.5–1 GB per day: maps to the hotel from RTB or SAP, the boat schedule for West End, the camera-translator on a Spanish menu, video calls between dives, the bus app to confirm the next leg. Call it 1 GB/day for the math:
| Trip length | Roamzy ($2.66/GB) | Tourist roaming pass | Local SIM at SAP/TGU |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 days | $7.98 | $15–40 | $5–15 + passport |
| 1 week | $18.62 | $30–80 | $8–20 + 30-day cap |
| 2 weeks | $37.24 | $70–140 (often two passes) | $12–25 + cap |
Competitor prices in columns 3 and 4 are 2025 ranges based on typical offerings; exact figures depend on your home carrier and the airport store you visit. Roamzy's rate in column 2 is our actual published rate from the pricing page.
A SIM at Roatán's small airport or San Pedro Sula's larger one is available, but you wait, you scan a passport, you pick a 7- or 30-day window. The eSIM is already active when you land — useful when the dive boat leaves in two hours.
Where does Roamzy work in this country?
Honduras's network coverage clusters around the cities and the Caribbean coast:
- San Pedro Sula, Tegucigalpa, La Ceiba — 4G/LTE at 95%+, 5G in central districts
- Roatán (West End, West Bay, Coxen Hole) — solid LTE on the developed coast, weaker on the eastern tip and on the dive boats
- Utila and Guanaja (the smaller Bay Islands) — 4G in town, gaps elsewhere
- Copán Ruinas — fine in the town, weakening as you enter the archaeological park; the ruins themselves are spotty
- The CA-5 highway between San Pedro Sula and Tegucigalpa — continuous LTE on the asphalt, occasional drops in the mountain passes
- The Mosquito Coast and La Moskitia — almost no coverage, expedition planning required
For diving days on Roatán, signal at the dive shop, none on the boat — that's normal physics.

What are Roamzy's honest limitations?
Three traps Roamzy doesn't have because they were never built in. No welcome promo that flips on the second top-up. No fine-print throttling — "5 GB at full speed, then 128 kbps." No auto-renewal you forgot to cancel and discover six months after the trip on a card you don't watch.
It's not a marketing gimmick — it's an engineering decision born from indifference to gimmicks. You can't make a tariff cheaper than no fine-print and no expiry — so we don't.
What if my trip continues to other countries?
Honduras is rarely standalone. The route usually continues into Guatemala or south:
- Guatemala — Copán to Chiquimula in a single shuttle, the eSIM hands over at the border
- Nicaragua — south through Las Manos toward Estelí and Granada
- El Salvador — west to El Amatillo for the surf coast
