NEW INTERNET SERVICE - HARBOUR HOUSE

We're happy to announce the Utila Cays now have Internet service. Harbor House Restaurant recently opened for business offering not only the best menu around but also Internet service and a gymnasium. Harbor House, the tallest building on the Cays actually overlooks our sundeck so of course they've got a great view.

I tried the Panini with a nice hot Cappuccino and I was quite impressed. The menu includes a nice variety of breakfast items, snacks, deserts, home made ice cream, vegetarian dishes salads, seafood and more.

The atmospere is full of pirate and maratime style items so it fits in perfectly with Captain Morgan's.

Roatan - Power Problems

The island of Roatan has been experiencing a general strike due to the residents anger due to recent increase in the cost of electrical power.

Several cruise ships have been turned away and are threatening to boycott the island for a period of 5 years. A lack of transportation to island due to the strike is causing major problems and losses to the tourism industry.

If you plan a trip to Roatan we strongly recommend checking on the current situation.

NOTE: We pay double for electrical power here in Utila than Roatan. We would be celebrating rather than rioting if we had their electrical rate!!!

Hurricane Paloma

We have a newly formed Hurricane named Paloma in the Western Caribbean. It's current track is heading away from the Bay Islands with it's path projected toward the Cayman Islands and Cuba.

The weather here in Utila is actually quite nice and sunny and we don't expect any adverse diving conditions due to Paloma.

Captain Morgan's 14 Year Anniversary!!!

Happy Birthday to Captain Morgan's!!!



We started this dive shop back in 1994 & have kept going strong ever since!

We've had a great time here and looking forward toward the next 14 years!

The Bay Islands are in Rainy Season once again but not to worry we've been diving every day. Our new Divemaster Veronica got to dive with an Eagle Ray at Little Bight today!

Tony who just finished 7th grade here has also become the island's newest PADI Junior Open Water Diver - Congratulation Tony!

The Utila Princess ferry is running again out of La Ceiba but if you're not sure give us a call at 425-3349. Their office is only a few steps away from our office here in downtown Utila.
