r/roatan

I’m staying in West Bay this December. I have read a lot about people who have stayed there and hired different companies to drive them around and take them to different areas. My question, if I just book an Airbnb centrally located in West Bay, will that be good enough to enjoy the beaches, snorkeling etc or do I also need to look into a local travel company for getting around and doing those things?

Hello everyone! My family and I are staying in Roatan for a few days next week with my 2 year old who has dairy and soy allergies and is just an extremely picky eater in general. So, we’re staying at an airbnb with a kitchen so we can cook her meals.

My question: does Eldon’s Supermarket have oat milk, jasmine rice and branzino fish? Those are her staples and if they don’t carry those things, we’re going to have to bring them from NY (which we really don’t want to do unless we have to). If anyone has any insight? Thank you so much!

I’m curious of the sargassum in Roatan right now. I’ll be there June 9-16 and staying in Milton Bight. I’d appreciate any feedback from locals or anyone that has recently visited. Much thanks in advance!

My partner and I have been to Puerto Rico and loved it. We want to prioritize snorkeling, lounging on the beach with a drink, some nightlife, and jungle/nature! We prefer something that isn’t super “touristy” but still feels safe. We know Roatan is best for snorkeling but want to hear thoughts because the jungle and nightlife of Barbados seems amazing too. We also want to avoid a possible sargassum outbreak at our destination since it is in off season. We are a young couple in our twenties. TIA!!

We are both US Citizens (although I am also a Honduran Citizen)

Hey everyone,

Visiting Roatan in July and wanted to know if there were private services to get 9 people from the airport to West Bay area. Then also from West Bay to the ferry station to go to la ceiba

Planning on doing a 30 day freediving/backpacking trip in Roatan. Came here to find out if 30 days in Roatan is too long. I plan on being fairly busy with activities but, will there be enough to do aside from my planned diving? Thanks all
