Our guided snorkeling tours take you to West Bay, Camp Bay, The North Shore, Pigeon Cay, and Cayos Cochinos. Explore the sites that make Roatan’s reputation as a Caribbean snorkeling destination more than just a tagline. Tours leave directly from the dock at Puerta Azul hotel in Sandy Bay, Roatan and our hotel guests receive preferred pricing.
Our 3-Hour Snorkeling Tour is a favorite among visitors, especially those arriving by cruise ship. This experience takes you to the reef off the famed West Bay Beach, where sloping white sand patches meet vibrant coral outcroppings. From there, you’ll venture toward West End, home to remarkable underwater channels and intricate swim-throughs.
Cruise along Roatan’s North Shore, weaving through mangroves before arriving at Starfish Alley. Set in front of Pristine Bay, this sandy patch is dotted with starfish and flounder, and framed by a gently sloping wall. Next, head to Captain Edison’s secret spot, where the channel may reveal a passing stingray. Afterward, unwind with a leisurely float in the Caribbean’s crystalline waters – an effortless finale to our best tour.
Our 6-hour snorkel tour takes you to Roatan’s East End, home to the island’s longest natural beach. At Camp Bay, white sand stretches as far as the eye can see, palm trees sway gently in the breeze, and azure waters embrace the shoreline. With very little development, this tour offers a nearly untouched Caribbean escape. Spend your day snorkeling in the crystal-clear waters, strolling the secluded shoreline, or sipping a refreshing cocktail on board.
Journey to Pigeon Cay, a secluded atoll where a sliver of white sand meets an endless expanse of turquoise. Nestled within a pristine lagoon filled with nurse sharks and rays, the minimalistic landscape and varying shades of blue boasts a tiny yet enchanting presence. Surrounded by a fringing reef, beneath the water lies a dramatic sloping wall that is home to ancient barrel sponges, elusive drum fish, and spectacular coral. Completing the scene is the distant outline of our neighboring island, Guanaja.
All of our Roatan snorkeling tours include high quality soft-strap snorkeling masks, slip-on fins, two+ guided snorkeling stops, unlimited cold beverages, and light snacks on board. While our snorkeling tours are open to everyone on Roatan, guests of the hotel receive exclusive pricing.

Highly recommend a trip by boat to pigeon caye to snorkel.. some of the clearest and prettiest water I’ve ever seen. Also the food at the restaurant on site is soooo good. We had breakfast and dinner there and it felt really local and delish - plus the atmosphere is casual. Would definitely go back!!!
