Its crystal-clear waters and white sandy beaches create the perfect backdrop for both relaxation and adventure. Snorkeling and diving are highlights here, with vibrant coral reefs and abundant marine life making every underwater excursion unforgettable. The island’s laid-back towns are full of charm, with colorful buildings, local markets, and friendly locals eager to share their culture.

Whether you’re exploring hidden coves, lounging by the beach, or discovering local cuisine, Roatan delivers an effortless mix of serenity and excitement, making it a true gem of the Bay Islands in Honduras.

We spend an amazing week at roatan and a day at San Pedro Sula. Honduras have given the image it’s not really a safe country but I did not sense any danger throughout my time there. Roatan is a Caribbean island which is not the easiest to get to. We flew from El Salvador first to San Pedro Sula , spent a few hours there walked the market and the famous church and then another hour flight to Roatan. First we stayed 3 nights in West end and another 3 at west bay. West Bay definitely had more beautiful beaches and also better for snorkelling. Heaven for those who loves scuba diving. Just bear in mind Roatan has attracted a lot of tourists from neighbouring counties including America therefore I was actually quite surprised the prices there are actually not cheap. And don’t expect luxury. Overall I’m glad I went but probably won’t return in the short coming future
