Mangrove Eco Tour
Drift the island's secret green tunnels
1–1.5 hoursNature loversAll agesSlow travel
Glide by small boat through Roatán's mangrove channels: shady green tunnels where herons stalk the shallows and the water turns to glass. It's the quiet, local side of the island most cruise visitors never see.
Your guide reads the mangroves like a book: keep your eyes out for seabirds, crabs, rays and juvenile fish in the nursery waters.
