La Laguna Airport
GJA identifies La Laguna Airport on Guanaja, one of Honduras's Bay Islands in the Caribbean Sea. This small airstrip is the primary air gateway to Guanaja, an island known for its coral reefs, diving sites, and quiet, less-developed atmosphere compared to nearby Roatan. Because Guanaja has limited road infrastructure and much of the island is reachable mainly by boat, GJA plays an outsized role in bringing tourists, supplies, and residents to and from the mainland via connections in La Ceiba or Roatan. Flights are typically operated by small regional carriers using light aircraft suited to the airport's modest runway. For travelers planning eco-tourism or diving trips, GJA is often the first and last stop of the journey.
