Apparently, at some time in history some inhabitants of Utila decided to settle on these small islands because there were no sandflies. Two of the keys, Pigeon and Suc Suc Key, are almost entirely covered by houses, but the others are uninhabited, or have just a few houses on them. Another reason for visiting the islands is their beautiful beaches. So I walked around Utila town, and soon found a boatman of English origin, who was willing to take me to the islands.
 Sailing was smooth, the sun shining on us and the sea, and bringing out the brightest colours in the water, and we soon reached Pigeon Key. There, I walked around, on the only street, surprised by how densely populated this relaxed island was. I crossed the bridge to Suc Suc Key, and had a tasty lunch just at the other side. On the verandas, elderly people were watching life go by, children were playing in the streets, fishermen were preparing their boats, and the only sound to be heard came from the sea. It all felt very relaxing.
