Come discover the tropical beauty of Roatan, the largest of The Bay Islands, located 30 miles off the coast of Honduras. Roatan is approximately 30 miles long and 2 miles wide at the widest point, covered in lush green hills.

Roatan boasts palm fringed beaches, the beautiful Caribbean, and an extensive coral reef system surrounding the island. Some of the best diving and snorkeling in the Western Caribbean can be found around Roatan, including 97% of the known coral species found anywhere in the Caribbean.

The island has been home to quite a diversity of cultures over the centuries, including the original inhabitants, Paya Indians. In 1502, Christopher Columbus 'discovered' the Bay Islands and claimed them for Spain.

During the next century, Port Royal harbour, on the eastern end of the island, was home to many buccaneers. Stories of buried treasure and sunken galleons abound, especially among the locals who call Port Royal home.

Today, the English, Spanish, Payan Indian, Garifuna, Antillean, and Spanish Honduran islanders have been joined by a host of expatriate residents and tourists from countries around the world.

Islanders main industries are commercial fishing and tourism. The weather is warm - usually between 75-85 degrees Fahrenheit. Trade winds keep the climate comfortable year-round.
