Western Caribbean Charm
A getaway to kaleidoscopic coasts
Roatán
The riches of Roatán
The Bay Islands, three alluring isles off the northern coast of Honduras, are home to lush jungle canopies, endless white-sand beaches, and electric blue waters. Pirates, the Spanish, the English, and just about everyone else fought over Roatán, Utila, and Guanaja, but the coveted jewel of Honduras has always been Roatán. Its true beauty lies beneath the waves in the Mesoamerican Reef — attracting scuba divers, snorkeling enthusiasts, and thousands of species of marine life.
In Roatán, the west is best. The West End exudes an inviting island village vibe with its tucked away Half Moon Bay dotted with local, can’t-miss spots. On the other hand, West Bay Beach has become a hotspot after being named one of the best beaches in the world for its powdery sand, buzzing beach bars, and easy access to the reef. From the sandy shore, a snorkel and fins can quickly transport you to an underwater world teeming with tropical turtles and friendly fish — without having to ever leave the beach.

Finally, reach a mountain-top overlook for views of French Harbour and the north and south shores of Roatán.
