Tigo offers the widest network with the best reach including the Bay Islands.
Honduras has workable 4G across Tegucigalpa, San Pedro Sula, the Bay Islands and the main towns, with limited 5G so far. Tigo and Claro carry the widest coverage, including Roatan and the popular dive areas. The realistic weak spots are the mountainous interior, the Mosquito Coast and the remote rural roads, where signal thins or drops between towns. For the main tourist spots and the Bay Islands, connectivity is usable.
Typical local SIM: $8-18. Usually sold at Tigo and Claro stores, supermarkets and corner shops; airport counters at San Pedro Sula and Roatan. Local SIMs are cheap with passport registration, but for a short Roatan dive trip a travel eSIM avoids finding a store and works the moment you land.
For a short trip a travel eSIM is the easiest choice. For a long stay a local Tigo SIM is cheaper per gigabyte.
the widest network with the best reach including the Bay Islands, a strong single choice.
good coverage in the main cities and towns, a solid alternative.
you want to land connected for a Bay Islands dive trip without queuing, or you are moving between the coast and the interior.
you are staying a month or more and want the lowest price per gigabyte from a local Tigo pack.
No first-hand measurement has been published for Honduras yet. This page will update automatically when a validated field test is added to the shared dataset.
Use this page to compare the current price per GB, network indicator, transparency signal and local-operator reference for Honduras. It also links to a destination calculator and plan page.
It is the median price per GB of mid-tier plans in the live Honduras catalogue. Small 1 GB teasers and 50 GB or larger bulk plans are excluded so the figure reflects a typical traveller choice.
The page shows the current 5G coverage indicator, a transparency score and the main local operator. These are destination-level signals, not a guarantee for every street or device.
The decision section compares the practical trade-offs. A travel eSIM is usually simpler for a short visit; a local SIM can make sense when you need a local number, longer service or local pricing. Check the current conditions before deciding.
Price per GB is the median of mid-tier plans from the live Honduras catalogue. Network and transparency indicators come from the shared Drift dataset and are refreshed monthly.
