What travelers are saying
"The Roatan reef was absolutely breathtaking. The coral and the fish were incredible, and the water was so clear. Our guide knew the best spots and made everyone feel safe. A must do in Honduras."
"The Copan Maya ruins were stunning. The carved stelae and the ball court were impressive and our guide explained the history really well. A great cultural day away from the beach."
"West Bay Beach is paradise. Crystal clear water, white sand, and the snorkeling right off the shore was amazing. Lunch on the beach with fresh seafood. Best day of our trip."
Roatan sits on the second largest barrier reef in the world. The best snorkeling is at West Bay Beach, where the reef starts just off the shore, and on boat tours to spots like Mary place and the coral gardens. Visibility is excellent and you will see colorful coral, tropical fish, and sometimes turtles.
Guided snorkel tours in Roatan start from around $45 USD per person and include gear and a boat ride to the reef. Two tank reef dives start from about $80. Island day trips to Cayos Cochinos with lunch start from around $90. Prices vary by operator and season.
Yes. You do not need to dive to enjoy Roatan. Snorkeling off West Bay Beach lets you see the reef in shallow water, and life jackets are available on most tours. There are also glass bottom boat trips, beach days, and Copan ruins excursions for travelers who prefer to stay dry.
The dry season from February to April offers the calmest seas and the best visibility for snorkeling and diving in Roatan. Honduras is warm year round. The rainy season runs from September to January, with more rain on the mainland than on the Bay Islands.
Bring a swimsuit, towel, a hat, and reef safe sunscreen to protect the coral. A waterproof phone case or underwater camera is great for the reef. Water shoes help on rocky entries. Most tours provide snorkel gear, but you can bring your own mask if you prefer.
Yes, but Copan is on the mainland and a fair distance from Roatan, so it usually means an overnight trip or a flight to San Pedro Sula plus a drive. Many travelers combine a few days on Roatan with a separate trip to the Copan Maya ruins rather than a single day tour.
We recommend booking at least 24-48 hours in advance, especially during high season (December-March) when tours sell out quickly. Early morning slots are the first to go. Instant confirmation on all bookings.
Yes. Most tours offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Cancellations made less than 24 hours before departure are non-refundable. Check the specific tour for details.
