Snorkeling in Roatan: Zip Line, Wildlife Park & Reef

You'll flip and turn high above the jungle before dropping down to the reef.

A half-day snorkeling activity in Roatan that starts with zip lining through jungle canopy on 16 lines and 3 suspension bridges, moves to a guided tour of a wildlife sanctuary, and ends with reef snorkeling at West Bay Tabyana Beach. You'll see sloths, capuchin monkeys, scarlet macaws and parrots in the park, then encounter colorful fish and coral underwater with all equipment and a licensed guide provided.

The experience

The zip line itself is 16 different lines strung across 24 platforms and 3 suspension bridges, letting you do flips, turns and superman moves while the jungle spreads out below and the ocean sits on the horizon. After you come down, you head to the Sanctuary Eco-Park for a guided walk where you see sloths, capuchin monkeys, scarlet macaws and parrots up close and can take photos with them.

Before the water, the route includes a stop at the West End chocolate and rum factory. Then the boat takes you out from West Bay Tabyana Beach to the reef, where you snorkel among the coral and fish with your guide. The whole thing runs about four hours from pickup to drop-off, with an air-conditioned vehicle handling the transport between stops.
