Scuba
Diving
in Roatan, Bay Islands of Honduras
TAKE
THE SUBWAY TO SPECTACULAR REEFS IN ROATAN
Roatan is famous among scuba divers for its big variety of coral, which you can see from only a
short boat ride away. Some of the best-known and most spectacular
dive sites
are just minutes away.
Roatan
features scuba diving at its best. Thousand-foot
walls festooned with deepwater gorgonians, coral gardens and barrel sponges,
pillar coral, 60-foot deep ledges crowded with blackcap basslets, mini-walls
clustered with bluebell tunicates, pinnacles overgrown with azure vase
sponges, and shy indigo hamlets peering from niches are all aspects of
scuba diving in Roatan in the Bay Islands of Honduras. A short boat ride away, you will find spur/canyon
configurations, coral gardens, ledges, overhangs, caverns, and vertical
fissures. Miles of reef leave scuba diving in Roatan uncrowded and many areas have
yet to be explored by visitors. Large groupers and moray eels are a common
sight. On any given dive around Roatan, one might see a hawksbill turtle or spotted eagle
ray gracefully gliding by.
Roatan's reefs are so extensive that it would take months of daily scuba diving to see
each known segment.
Sound exciting? Come and explore Roatan's reefs yourself.
Our dive masters and scuba instructors are waiting to show you their favorite dive
sites.
See you soon,

We have
two dive
facilities on the
north side of Roatan at Palmetto Bay Plantation and Turquoise Bay
Dive & Beach Resort.
When diving with us,
out of one of our two facilities in Roatan, you will enjoy the
very individual and personal service
that only small dive shops can offer. We specialize in tailored scuba diving meeting
each particular group’s needs and requests and a PADI divemaster guides all
dives. We do multilevel dive profiles with one hour dive time. We are capable of handling a maximum of 15
divers in Palmetto Bay and up to 25 divers in Turquoise Bay,
which we take out in
small groups of 6 to 12
per boat.
At both shops the dive boats leave daily at 8:45 am, 11 am and 2 pm.
We usually do one night dive per week in Turquoise Bay.
 Both our shops have some of
Roatan’s best dive sites
like the amazing Dolphin Den
very close by, so we come back to the dive shops for our surface
intervals. When we go to some of the further dive sites we do a two tank
dive in the morning and one tank in the afternoon. We are one of two dive
operators on Roatan, that offer
day trips to remote places like Morat, Barbaretta, Utila, the Sea Mounts and Cayos Cochinos.
We keep a boat on the South Side to dive
Mary's Place Roatan's most famous dive site and to be able to take you
diving 365 days a year. If one side of the island is rough we can always
take you out on the opposite side.
