Brief Description
Founded as the Villa de Puerto Caballos in 1524, this port has become the most important port city in Central America. Through it, most of the goods that are imported or exported to the country are embarked. Located only 55 km from San Pedro Sula, it has become, together with this industrial city the most important economic growth area of the country. Today, Puerto Cortes is a bustling port, where you can see a lot of seafaring activity every day of the year. Puerto Cortes is connected to San Pedro Sula via a modern four lane highway that covers the entire route of 55 km between both cities. Travel time to Puerto Cortes is a short 45 minutes at the most if traveling by car and one hour if traveling by bus.

The town itself has been cleaned up a lot by the current municipal administration and has a very attractive central park. It is a usual commercial center without much attraction for tourists. There are decent hotels and restaurants in the town center, on the municipal beach, and on other nearby beaches. The municipal beach is a big attraction for locals on weekends and holidays.

The Saturday farmer's market draws big crowds of shoppers, tons of fresh fruit, vegetables, and meats from local producers. From Puerto Cortes there is a partially paved road to the west taking you to Chivana, Omoa, Cuyamel, other small ocean side villages, and Guatemala. It's a great drive, mountains on your left and the ocean on your right. There are many beach homes belonging to upper crust folks from other parts of Honduras scattered among the local villages and homes.
