Roatan, at 64 kilometers long and just over 3 kilometers wide, is the largest of these islands and boasts the most developed infrastructure with a variety of hotels and resorts to suit almost any budget, a variety of dining options, several bars and clubs and some local shops. Tourists to Roatan will be pleased to discover that English is so widely spoken that many of the local inhabitants do not even speak Spanish.
Not surprisingly, Roatan’s greatest attractions are related to the beach or the water. The island is surrounded by lovely beaches and the world’s second largest coral reef, which actually hugs much of the shoreline. Most resorts and several local companies offer a variety of inexpensive snorkeling and diving opportunities. The water is warm and clear and an abundance of sea life calls this area home. Land lovers will find horseback riding, botanical gardens and canopy tours among the less wet options.
