The largest of the Bay Islands, Roatan measures approximately 29 miles long and 2 miles wide. A mountainous ridge runs along the center of the island creating scenic hiking through tropical trees, pockets of rainforest, vines and flowers to dramatic vistas overlooking the ocean and reef. Along the coast are diverse ecosystems from intricate mangroves and dramatic iron shore coastline to beautiful sandy beaches and inlets. And of course, just a short distance from shore is the barrier reef that has made Roatan famous for spectacular diving. The Bay Islands Beach Resort is located on the northwest shore of Roatan, approximately a 10 minute drive from the airport. The northwest shore is the leeward side of the island guaranteeing calm seas most of the year. Located within Roatan's Northwest Marine Reserve, the resort is just 10-15 minutes from most dive sites. Similarly, the major restaurants and shops in West End and Coxen Hole are easily accessible.
