Experience the thrill of underwater discovery as well as a chance to explore and shop in the quaint West End Village.
An approximately 30-minute drive will bring you to a beautiful bay where you will board a semi-submarine for an amazing ride. The semi-sub is not submerged; instead, you will descend a few steps into the underwater observatory boat from which you can view the treasures of the deep while you are seated in air-conditioned comfort. Your guide will explain the underwater environment as you observe beautiful coral formations, living reefs, and colorful tropical fish without getting wet.
At West End village, in a private location on the waterfront, you will browse in the stores along the coastline to shop for souvenirs and enjoy a cup of Honduran coffee, lemonade or iced tea.
You'll also visit the only Cameo Factory in the Americas. During this demonstration, admire how conch shells are transformed into art and, if you like, purchase cameo pieces, handmade bracelets, rings and necklaces in gold and silver.
Notes:
There are eight steps to get into and out of the semi-sub. If weather conditions preclude the semi-sub boat ride, a visit to the Roatán Museum and Institute of Marine Science will be substituted, with a partial refund.
