Shore Excursions for Divers from the Cruise ship

 

What to expect? Cruise ship passengers usually have around 6 hours on the island; just long enough to realize that you have to come back again! However there is still enough time to see a bit of what Roatan has to offer both on the surface and underwater. Our dive center in West Bay, Roatan is a scenic drive from the cruise ship terminal and from there we can offer diving, snorkeling and other activities including zip lines, kayaking and glass bottom boat tours. If you just want to relax on the beach with a drink in your hand, West Bay is by far the best beach on Roatan for this, white sand, clear water and bars right on the beach.

For Certified divers we have fun dives leaving three times a day from the dive center so it is easy for you to fit two dives in during your stay on Roatan. All dives are guided by one of our divemasters and we have dive sites for all experience levels, walls, shipwrecks, drift dives as well as shallow sandy sites for beginners.

If snorkeling is your thing than West Bay is for you, it is one of the best snorkeling destinations on Roatan and within a few kicks from shore is a vibrant reef, bright and colorful with both shallow and deep reefs to explore. We also offer snorkeling trips from the dive boat, these are also guided by a divemaster.

If you are visiting Roatan with a diverse group of snorkelers, divers and sun seekers please let us know and we will do our best to accommodate everyone. Transportation can also be arranged for non-divers and we do work with other tour operators in the area, just let us know if you have any special requests.

Transportation will be arranged for you and includes a return trip, the price will vary depending on which terminal you arrive at and how many are in your group. We try hard to make the transportation as affordable as possible, if you are unsure which port you are docking in just email us with your ship's name and arrival date.

Snorkel trips from the boat include two different dive sites as well as a snorkel guide.
