Roatan is part of a cluster of island archipelagos situated ten to forty miles off the northern coast of Honduras. These islands are a gem in the western Caribbean, surrounded by the largest barrier reef system in the northern hemisphere. The Mesoamerican Barrier Reef is second in size only to Australia's Great Barrier Reef.
Roatan is rated a spectacular Caribbean destination experience time and again, not only for its astonishing views and sites. Here we have something special—an amazingly diverse Caribbean culture against the unparalleled beauty of the island’s natural landscape.
Still far outside the glitterati of the Eastern Caribbean, the beautiful island of Roatan offers an authentic Caribbean experience with the comforts of home.
Since its recognition as a dive mecca in the 1960’s, Roatan has become known as a tropical retreat in the tranquil Caribbean. While Roatan remains a quaint tropical island with a unique cultural identity, the infrastructural improvements and expanded direct flights have made Roatan more accessible during the last decade.
