Jolly Roger 5 Hour Sailing Snorkeling Catamaran Tour

Roatan Catamaran Sailing Tour -

After being picked up at the dock or your hotel, your Roatan Island Tour begins with a brief sail around the South Shore. After leaving the Jolly Roger Marina we set sail west from Dixon's Cove past a sunken ship at Stamp Key and make our way to the West End of Roatan Island under main sail and spinnaker. Sightseeing from the water provides many photo opportunities. During this portion of the cruise passengers are served softdrinks and purified water with a light snack depending on the time of day. NO ALCOHOL IS SERVED BEFORE SNORKELING!
Light Caribbean music is played on the ships sound system. This part of the cruise takes one hour under sail and is extremely relaxing and peaceful. Roatan is a beautiful island and seen from the sea it is spectacular.

Snorkel and Lunch -
After rounding the western end of the island at Light House Point we head directly to the first of two different snorkeling locations in the Roatan National Marine Reserve.

Before arriving at the first snorkeling location our snorkeling instructor/crew member fits our snorkeling passengers with snorkeling equipment. Our snorkeling instructor then guides the snorkeling passengers to the best snorkeling sites. Our snorkeling instructor supervises your adventure from an inflatable kayak and serves as lifeguard.

After about 30 minutes enjoying the local underwater flora and fauna, the Captain calls the snorkelers aboard and moves the catamaran to the second snorkeling location. While the snorkelers explore the underwater world, the crew prepares a Caribbean buffet lunch at the ships bar. The lunch consists of Caribbean barbeque chicken, rice and beans, macaroni pie, salad, and a dessert. The Open Bar is opened and guests can order rum drinks, fruit juice or soft drinks as they desire after they have finished snorkeling.

Depending on conditions and availability, the 4th portion of the tour will be one of the following options:

4. Shopping in the West End
After lunch our guests can explore Roatan's popular West End. In addition to a white-sand beach, West End is a shoppers paradise. Wander around town at your leisure surveying the local crafts, jewelry, clothing and souvenir items. In addition to the shops, many local artists set up booths near the Half Moon Bay dock to display their treasures.

If you need a break from shopping, stop for a cold drink at one of the many open-air restaurants in the area, or simply relax on the beach. Our catamarans are equipped with fresh-water showers for freshening up after swimming or snorkelling.
