One of the most picturesque and serene islands of the Western Caribbean is Roatan Island. It is situated about 30 miles off the coast of Honduras, between Utila, Gaunaja and some 64 smaller islands and cays collectively known as The Bay Islands. These islands are located along the mesoamerican coral reef system - the second largest barrier reef in the world.
There are several enticing beaches on this island. One of the best is West Bay Beach, with soft white sand and calm turquoise water, it is the perfect spot to sunbathe and enjoy a relaxing Caribbean vacation. Located close to the world famous coral reefs, this beach is a travel paradise and ideal for activities like snorkeling, diving and strolling - a must visit on your checklist of things to do on Roatan.
As part of the numerous options you also have West End Village, this lively little beach town on the North Shore of Roatan is full of a variety of entertainment options. With numerous dive shops, restaurants, art galleries and souvenir stores this town is the ideal summer holiday destination, especially for the young, adventurous and those on a budget. Simply relax with a glass of chilled beer by the beach or indulge in a sport that you have always wanted to do ? West End Village has an activity in store for everyone!
When in The Bay Islands, a good idea is to try a canopy tour. Offering a tree top view of this spectacular island, it is an adventure like you have never experienced before and a must do activity on any shore excursion or tour. Immerse yourself in other adventure sports like scuba diving or windsurfing - with reefs supporting 99% of the hard coral, gorgonian and sponge species and 100% of the fish species found in the Caribbean and cool trade winds blowing year round, Roatan is a perfect place for such activities.
However, if you are in search for peace and tranquility then leave aside the adventure tours and rather take a stroll along the tree-lined paths of the Butterfly Garden or learn about the intriguing indigenous reptiles at the Iguana Farm and experience tropical nature at its best.
