Roatan

Warm Caribbean waters with excellent diving, white sand beaches, and tropical sunsets are some of the attractions of the Bay Islands. Roatan’s major source of income is tourism, particularly because of SCUBA diving attractions. The underwater environment is rich and extensive with reefs surrounding the islands, often within swimming distance of the shore. Caves and caverns are a common feature, with a variety of sponge and the best collection of pillar coral.

The following Shore Excursions are available for this port on this cruise, and may be reserved beginning 180 days before the cruise begins.

Starting off from the pier, it's an approximately 1-hour scenic drive to the Tabyana Beach area where you will board your tour boat and begin your exploration. Witness a living reef system that is teeming with fish of all colors and varieties and revel in the formations of the different coral heads. After approximately 45 minutes, you will return to shore and have a short transfer to Tabyana Beach.

Tabyana Beach is for many, a dream come to life, providing visitors the best nature has to offer, along with the amenities that make any visit here comfortable and completely relaxing. Along with offering you a stretch of amazing beach and sparkling ocean, you will also be able to take advantage of fresh water showers with changing/restroom facilities, gift boutiques, cash bar and great Caribbean music. The more adventurous may want to do some snorkeling in this unspoiled environment and the coral reefs begin close to the water's edge. You can even join in a vigorous game of beach volleyball if you choose or go kayaking, followed by a cooling glass of ice water, iced tea or homemade lemonade (included at no charge).

Considered to be Roatan's finest beach, Tabyana Beach is truly an undiscovered paradise waiting for you to experienc. Following approximately 2 and one-half hours enjoying the beach at your leisure, you will meet your transportation and travel back to the pier.
