FROM COXEN HOLE

El Rancho Barrio Dorcas is situated along the highway from Coxen Hole passing through Sandy Bay to West End on the right hand side of the road when coming from Coxen Hole.
Just past Sandy Bay, look on your right−hand side for a white Adventist church. There is a roadsign there that says Mangrove Bight. Don’t turn in there, just keep going along the same road. When you get to the top of the hill, you will see another sign on your right saying "Green Hill Apartments". The ranch is located on your right-hand side around the bend from there, directly across from the "Tropico Italiano".

FROM WEST END
If you are in West End, we are about a 15 minute walk up the highway in the direction of Coxen Hole from the triangle that marks the entrance to West End Village. It is about 3/4 of a mile, not far after the gas station. Look out for an olive-coloured mansion with white trim on your right surrounded by a stonework wall. The ranch is just beyond, on your left.

FROM WEST BAY by water taxi
Taxis from West Bay can be pricy in comparison to other locations on the island. A pleasant alternative would be to come to West End by water taxi. At the time of writing, the cost for the water taxi is $3 (50 Lempiras). There are several locations on the beach in West Bay where you can get one. It is but a short mini-bus ride from the water taxi stop. These buses pass every 15 minutes; just flag one down and a dollar or Lps.15 will get you to the ranch, which is located not far after the gas station. Look out for an olive-coloured mansion with white trim on your right surrounded by a stonework wall. The ranch is just beyond, on your left.

FROM WEST BAY by car or taxi
Take the West Bay road (there is only one main road). This road ends in a "T" where it meets the Flower's Bay road. Turn left here in the direction of West End. After about 2 or 3 miles, this road also ends in a "T". Turn right at this point (direction Sandy Bay / Coxen Hole). The ranch is about 3/4 of a mile along this road.

You know you are nearing the ranch when you see these landmarks:
Shortly after the gas station you will pass on your right, the road veers to the right and you will go up a steep hill. At the top of the hill, you will see a yellowish mansion with white trim surrounded by a stonework wall. You can park right in front of the arched gate. The ranch is just beyond, on your left. You will see the horses saddled up by the side of the road. If you see the "Tropico Italiano" sign on your right, you’ve gone too far.

FROM FLOWERS BAY
Take the road that goes from Flowers Bay to West End. At one point, you will arrive at a triangle. Don't turn left here, stay going straight ahead. About 2 or 3 miles further, the road ends in a "T". Turn right at this point (direction Sandy Bay / Coxen Hole). The ranch is about 3/4 of a mile along this road.
