Rosario Bank is a former atoll in the southern Caribbean Sea, located less than 20 km south of Misteriosa Bank. It is in Honduras' exclusive economic zone.

It has depths of 18 to 64 meters.[1] The distance to the Honduran mainland at Punta Patuca in the south is 290 km, and to Banco Chinchorro off the Belize mainland in the west is about 330 km.
