ROATAN : Wonderful for those who like to snorkel and dive!
Whatever you do, get out of Coxen Hole where the ship docks! It's really a depressing little port town. Even if you don't enjoy water sports, you NEED to take some sort of island tour because you won't be happy just staying at the port.
Roatan is on this great reef and the snorkeling and diving is awesome! We took a yacht / snorkel tour. I just used my regular mask and still saw tons of colorful fish. The water was warm ( January) and just as clear as could be! Some years back we snorkeled in Australia and this WITH NO EFFORT (or regular snorkel gear) was just as good!
Don't miss "snorkeling" in Roatan!

We were in Roatan last week - what a beautiful island!! We highly recommend taking a taxi to the West End ($80 for the day for 8 of us - we had a van). The driver first took us to the Canopy tour - WOW!!!!! It was incredible!!!! I can go into more detail if you are interested. Then he took us to a beach next to Tayabana?? beach. We snorkeled from there - saw some great stuff right around the ropes of Tayaban beach. Walk along the beach to find great deals on beer - 2 for $1.00!! I was one of our best days.

did the tabyana beach tour and were able to do a canopy tour (for a fee) there are tabyana. decent snorkeling if you bring something to feed the fish. you must definitely do an excursion here as there is literally nothing in the port.

We went just about a month ago...
I was wanting to parasail - did it cozumel for $55...there were a bunch of options there all about the same price.
In Roatan we booked an excursion with www.roatansaltnpepper.com -
My husband is a certified diver and I'm not - they coordinated a dive for the two of us - me a discovery and he tagged along. It was just the two of us and the dive master.
We took a van over (they met us at the dock) with 8 other people - they went snorkling.
They took us to the Lost Paradise Inn on the west end. This was a great little private hotel and beach - barely anyone there and beautiful water. After diving they served us lunch (included in our fee) - this was a great lunch - 2 lobster tails and rice cooked wonderfully.
I would love to back for a week to this little spot of paradise!
