Roatán is the largest of the principal Bay Islands, located in the western Caribbean, just off the north coast of Honduras. Of its sister islands, Roatán is the most developed, which makes it a favorite of travelers.
If you like sun, beaches, and clear blue water—Roatán has got something for everybody. From its bounty of dive sites to the friendly reptiles at the Iguana Farm, from its Garifuna residents in Punta Gorda to West Bay beaches, there are plenty of facets to this island gem.
