What To Do On Roatan

Diving in Roatan: West Bay Divers

June 5, 2018 by Rika 11 Comments

West Bay Divers

West Bay Divers is truly a hidden gem on Roatan, tucked away just back from West Bay Beach behind Beachers, a lively bar & restaurant. If you weren't following the signs, you might miss it - but this is not a dive shop to miss.As most of you already know, I am picky about where I dive in my time off. Having been an instructor and also having run dive shops, I know exactly what I'm looking for in a dive shop, and West Bay Divers (WBD) ticks all the boxes for me:friendly and experienced ...

What To Do On Roatan: 1-Week Itinerary

November 21, 2015 by Rika 8 Comments

Most travelers arrive on Roatan for a week. We only have a few airlines that run direct routes from hubs in the USA (Houston, Atlanta, Miami) and you can usually get the best deal by booking a week-long return ticket. The Canadian charters (Sunwing + Air Transat) have also started for the busy season and the Milan charters as well, and all the charters run on a one week schedule. A week is the perfect amount of time to explore Roatan!(Only have one day? [Hi cruise shippers!] Check out my 1-Day ...

What To Do On Roatan: 3-Day Itinerary

Three days is not a lot of time on Roatan, but you can still get to know the island!

A Daytrip to Old Port Royal

September 5, 2015 by Rika 2 Comments

One thing I find both terrible and embarrassing is that on a tiny island like Roatan, it has taken me YEARS to get to some of the destinations around here. To be fair, for most of the year, I spend 6 days a week, 9+ hours a day at a dive shop or on a dive boat or underwater, so I don't have a lot of free time. But lately I have been graced with plenty of it, so when my friends put together a motorcycle day trip to Old Port Royal, or 'the end of the road' (literally), I jumped at the chance to ...

What To Do On Roatan: 1-Day Itinerary

May 2, 2015 by Rika 5 Comments

Whether you're on the island on a cruise ship call, or simply using it as a jumping-off point for further travel (full disclosure: when I first came here, I was supposed to fly into Roatan for a day and then move on to Utila to do my dive courses... it took me TWO YEARS to make it to Utila!), you can still experience a lot in a day on Roatan. Read on to see my recommendations if you have just a little time on this beautiful island...(Have a few days to spend here? Check out my 3-Day Itinerary ...
