Roatan Mangrove Tunnels Adventure
This tour starts with a sightseeing tour of the island: 1st visit, downtown Coxen Hole, capital city of the Bay Islands and seat of government buildings and banks. The sunken ship is a must-do photo stop; French Harbour is home of the fishing industry and the best seafood restaurants on the island. Two popular optional stops: the Iguana Farm, and the Sloth Hangout. Tell your guide if you want to visit. Punta Gorda village is the heart of the Garifuna community and you'll learn their culture and traditions. In Oakridge we'll board a traditional cayuco boat to reach Jonesville, a community known for its pirate festival, and more important to us, for the mangrove tunnels. Hundreds of fish, bird and land species use the mangrove shelter as a nursing ground, and mangrove roots retain and prevent dirt and trash to reach the ocean, hence its importance. Your private tour guide will be with you for the entire day and will bring you back with plenty time before your ship’s departure time
