Explore the Natural Beauty of Roatan, a Caribbean Gem in the Bay Islands
Roatan, the largest of Honduras’ Bay Islands, is a haven of sun and natural pleasures, with jungle-clad sloping hills and some of the prettiest beaches in the Caribbean. Its diverse topography is a major draw, but Roatan is probably most famous for being the ideal location from which to explore the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, the largest coral reef structure in the Western Hemisphere. The crystalline waters that surround the island are an open window into the region’s colorful array of marine life.
The surroundings of Blue Ocean Reef Resort are rife with exotic flora and fauna, making it a favorite spot for eco-lovers – our own Roatan Zoo & Island Adventure is full of indigenous wildlife. Visitors will discover iguanas and crabs prancing about and hear the song of birds they have never heard anywhere else. The island’s natural allure draws travelers from all over the world for all types of adventures – from bird-watching to hiking and, of course, lots of underwater exploration. Options are plentiful, with soft breezes and a hefty dose of sunshine adding to the tropical feel of your getaway.
Roatan is close to other Bay Islands, including Utila, Guanaja and Cayos Cochinos, many of which are just a ferry ride away. The Caribbean coastline is the home of the Garifuna, whose African and Arawak/Carib ancestry permeates Roatan’s culture. The island’s multi-ethnic vibrancy, as well as its main languages of Spanish and English, allows you to quickly immerse yourself in the experience of a lifetime.
Blue Ocean Reef Resort is just a 20-minute drive from Roatan International Airport, and also enjoys close proximity to various cruise ports, restaurants, shopping areas and ferry docks. Roatan enjoys direct flights from multiple U.S. cities, including New York, Newark, Miami, Houston and Atlanta.
Convenient, easily reachable and infinitely beautiful – Roatan and Blue Ocean Reef Resort await you with Caribbean warmth and luxurious hospitality.
