Let's start with Roatan, the larger Island in Honduras Bay Islands.
We enjoy the diverse anchorages. You can be in populated areas, such as West End to French Caye Harbor, or you can get off by yourself in Port Royal or Calebash.
The water is just as diverse depending on what is below. You have the blue water over the white sands and the deep green water over the lush vegetation.
The snorkeling and diving is great all around Roatan.
Plenty of the anchorages are protected and have great holding
Accommodations in these anchorages vary. In West End you have access to walk to many stores and restaurants. City transportation is easy to find as well from taxis to a city bus.
On the East End anchorages more travel is required because you are more remote.
Mid Roatan has other forms such as a shuttle that the large grocery store provides once a week from Fantasy Island Marina. Also, local laundry service picks up and drops off if enough cruisers participate.
Roatan has a large fishing fleet still so some boat supplies can be found on the island. Shipping items in is fairly easy. There is also good hardware stores, such as Ace Hardware.
You can easily get from one anchorage to another in a day sail.
We enjoy the Bay Islands and plan to spend several years in and around them.
