La Ceiba, Honduras

Capital City

With a population of 232,696, La Ceiba is a major port city on Honduras' northern coast, but don't let the numbers fool you - this place is a bureaucratic headache. The climate is brutally wet, with annual rainfall of around 3,200 millimeters, second only to Colón, Panama among Central American cities. And while the city touts itself as the "Entertainment Capital of Honduras," the reality is a chaotic urban center built around the banana industry. If you can stomach the endless paperwork and damp weather, La Ceiba may work, but it's certainly not for the faint of heart.
