Im from there originally haven been back in 6 years as an Island person I did enjoy your perspective on the 2 different areas...I've been to various others Islands in the carribbean and I'm still saying Roatan is 1 of the best in the World....I won't change it for nothing. Can't wait to go and visit back home in 4 months....blessings everyone. To my fellow Islanders enjoy Roatan don't take it for granted. Because there are not many more beaches like it...💖

I am native from ROATAN lived there till I was 21 worked at Anthony’s Key Resort and I love this Island. Bay back then over 30 years ago there were no development at West Bay it was just a solitary beautiful aqua blue pristine beach with limited access either by boat or walking over the mountain either from West End or Flowers Bay. Now that I am close to retirement I would love to go there with my girls and stay for a couple of weeks. Thank you for the amazing videos of ROATAN❤️

I had an amazing experience at the Caribbean Seahawk Resort on West Bay - it was beachfront bliss with crystal-clear waters, a relaxing pool area, convenient access to water activities like kayaking and snorkeling, delicious dining with ocean views, and clean, spacious rooms close to local attractions. While the best part of Roatan depends on individual preferences, the Caribbean Seahawk Resort definitely made my experience unforgettable with its beautiful beachfront location, relaxed atmosphere, and great amenities.

Catching up with Roatan since my time there wayyy back in 1992- 94! Yeah- as a Gringo the West End was my type of place- back then the tarmac-road ended in Cocks N Hole and from there All sand! The actual beach of West End was 'almost' completely natural- no man-made structs-at all! You could rent a Basic 1 bed bongolo for $12.- a night or sleep in Jimmy's hammocks for $6- ! Back then as you hiked down the beach (Then) you could see Sea Eagles flying 10 ft off the waves- hunting for snakes crawling in and out of the sea! Since those days I have retired back in the US, although I married a Filipina and often we return to our small island of Samal in the southern Philippines. Unforturnatly there the local population is so poor its still dependent upon fishing and consequently they have Fished-Out much of The Philippines- truly tragic! Personally I can say this- I've swam and dove- Hawaii/Red Sea/ Belize/Keys and Roatan has one of the very Best 'reefs' for EVERYTHING Water-wise you will find!!!!!!! Thereby enjoy this video while things still last! Sad part though is- today Honduras for so-soo many of their own poor has become desperate and the Immigrant Caravans heading North often are many Hondurians! As I lived in Guatemala City and did tours around Central America- yes the poor were poor but NONE of those countries were as Bad economically as they are today for so-so many locals!!!
