Santa Lucía (Spanish pronunciation: ['santa lu'si.a]) is a municipality in the Honduran department of Intibucá.
Santa Lucía is nestled in a valley along the San Juan river, in the remote mountains of the province of Intibucá. It is one of the poorest towns in the province, though in recent years there have been marked improvements in infrastructure and civil services.

Recent developments
In the 1990s, the University of Cincinnati and the non-profit Shoulder to Shoulder sponsored a building program for a clinical complex on the northeastern edge of the town. This is the only healthcare provider for an area comprising 10 other villages, and features several clinical offices, a small pharmacy, and a dental suite. A small full-time staff is onsite year round, and UC and other schools supply brigades of medical students and other volunteers to perform free clinic work and preventative medicine for the people of Santa Lucía.
