Sad news for all who knew and loved our beloved Captain Fermin. On March 2, Fermin was killed instantly in a tragic traffic accident.
It is with a very heavy heart that we report this terrible tragedy.
Fermin left behind a loving wife, Rita and wonderful children Harvey and Kimberly. Although we will miss Fermin dearly, we will all remember his smile, his joking, laughing, friendship, and of course his great skill as a dive-boat captain.
Anyone interested in providing financial support to his family may do so through the resort or dive shop. Any contribution, no matter how small would be greatly appreciated.
Please honor his memory by remembering the good times and his smiling face.
God bless,
Adam Baxter, Dive Master / Instructor
This is a great photo of the reflection of the water and palm tree onto one of the windows of a Beach Room at Luna Beach Resort. This proves how close to the water your room is from the water’s edge.
Beautiful visibility at amazing El Aquario today. 5 Sea Turtles in one dive!!!!! Welcome father and daughter dive buddies from Canada, Jack and Susan.
In the most recent edition of the Scuba Diving magazine, which included the 2012 Reader’s Choice Award winner, the Bay Islands scored top marks in six different categories including
Best Overall Caribbean Destination

According to an official of the Honduras Tourism department, a stronger marketing and promotions effort is under way to let scuba divers know about the impressive underwater sights and encounters that frequently occur in the Bay Islands.


Long-time return guests Pete, Julie, Kaitlin, and Kassandra followed up two great dives today with an all-too-rare encounter with a pod of Pilot Whales! What a great way to top off a great day of diving at Luna Beach Resort!!!
Happy New Year from the Luna Beach Dive Team! Spotted a rare Queen Trigger fish today along with several Green and Hawksbill Sea Turtles and huge schools of Creole Wrasse. Yesterday, we brought the new year in with an awesome Eagle Ray siting at Halfmoon Bay Wall. Looking forward to another great year of diving.
Congrats to Paula – our latest Open Water diver – for her first dive as a certified diver today. Her and her son Ivan were greeted by a very friendly Hawksbill Sea Turtle, a pair of White Spotted Filefish, a Black Grouper at a cleaning station, and a massive school of Creole Wrasse! Just another day in paradise.
