Despite its increasing number of visitors from all over the country and the world, Tela has retained the pristine quality of its beaches as well as its small town charm. Visitors appreciate the fact that the beaches of Tela offer the beast of both worlds – peace and serenity on one hand and excitement and adventure on the other hand.
Beach Beauty
As previously mentioned, Tela has a very beautiful coastline characterized by turquoise and emerald warm waters, powdery white sandy beaches, tall palms swaying gracefully in the wind as well as magnificent sunsets and sunrises this side of the Caribbean. And with year-round sunshine only broken by a passing hurricane, it is definitely paradise in Central America! In these surroundings, visitors can lounge around in hammocks, sip refreshing cocktail drinks and beers, read a book or two, soak up the sun, and go to sleep. Tela beaches are very conducive to such serene activities.
Of course, bikinis are allowed in these beaches so soaking up the sun is truly a tropical experience, not to mention a beautiful one with all the scantily-clad beautiful bodies parading around. However, nudism may not be a good idea because of a strong Catholic sensibility so keep your clothes on when and where appropriate. Unless, of course, you are in a private beach all your own!
When Holy Week rolls around, however, visitors can expect more people to flock to the beach and share their space. Not too much, of course, just enough to enjoy some good companionship. Besides, the scene smacks of an international gathering of people so making new friends and meeting old ones can be enjoyed by all.
Beach Adventure
For those looking for ocean adventure, there are many activities offered by Tela establishments. You can ask the hotel 
management for commercial establishments offering rentals on boats and kayaks as well as surfing and diving equipment, often on very reasonable rates. Or you can avail of day tours to places of interest in the coastlines of Tela. With that said, visitors can enjoy water sports activities such as rafting and kayaking, boating and fishing, snorkeling and diving, surfing and windsurfing. There are no limits to what visitors can experience in the rich marine ecosystem of Tela!
Of course, novices will need guidance on the water sports so professionals are also on hand to provide instructions. Just ask for referrals from seasoned tourists and locals to secure good services on the sports you are interested in. Or you can just go swimming in the pristine waters until you have had your fill of the sea. Then, take a walk on the beach, just enjoying the feel of powdery sand between your toes, the cool wind in your hair and the hot sun on your body and feel transported to another time, another place when paradise was reality, not myth.
