Trip Details

Our most popular snorkel tour for Roatan’s cruise ship visitors! This 3-Hour tour takes you to the reef directly in front of the famous West Bay Beach. Here you will explore expansive sandy patches and numerous coral outcroppings before heading to the reef in West End – known for it’s remarkable channels and intricate swim throughs.

North Shore | 4-Hour
Contact Us For Pricing!
6 Person Maximum

Our 4-hour snorkel tour begins with a scenic coastal cruise along Roatan’s North Shore; traversing through the mangroves and settling into the reef’s crystal clear lagoons. Home to the renowned Starfish Alley and other pristine sites, this snorkel tour is made even better with the addition of a leisurely float in the Caribbean sea post-snorkel. A favorite for visitors looking to escape the crowds on Roatan’s West End of the Island.

Camp Bay | 6-Hour
Contact Us For Pricing!
6 Person Maximum

Our 6-hour snorkel tour takes you all the way to Roatan’s East End, along the island’s longest natural beach. At Camp Bay Beach, white sand stretches as far as the eye can see, palm trees sway gently in the breeze, and azure waters embrace the shoreline. With little development, this tour offers an unrivaled “hidden Caribbean” getaway. Spend the day leisurely strolling the beach, snorkeling in the calm waters of the bay, or sipping a refreshing cocktail on board.

Pigeon Cay | 7-Hour
Contact Us For Pricing!
6 Person Maximum

Roatan’s most famous snorkel experience! Swim with sharks and experience the Caribbean as it once was on our 7-Hour snorkel tour to Pigeon Cay – a secluded atoll nestled on the south side of Barbareta Island. This isolated cay, sitting barely above sea level, can be found in the middle of a beautiful turquoise lagoon, offering visitors a stunning 180-degree view of the delicate balance between land and sea. But the real attraction lies beneath the waves, where guests can swim with nurse sharks, sting rays, and explore the fringing reef.

Due to Pigeon Cay’s remote location, this tour is not available to guests visiting from cruise ships.

What Guests Are Saying

 

If you are looking for a wonderful day out on the water, I highly recommend tours on the Jesse James out of Puerta Azul. Small numbers on the boat offer a customized, exclusive guest experience. And the food and hospitality by the crew is second to none.

We were spoiled with kindness from the beginning. Everything was very well organized and the drinks aboard were a plus we really enjoyed. We also enjoyed spending time at Puerta Azul and eating at the restaurant after the tour. We were allowed to use the hotel kayaks and paddleboards at no additional cost; we also enjoyed snorkeling off Puerta Azul dock along the reef in a non-touristy area. A real treat.

– June 2024

Our experience with Orlando and Edison was awesome! My sister and I were in port with a cruise ship and I was a little hesitant to to book an excursion outside of the ship offerings, but I am so glad I did. The experience was more private and personal than a large group excursion would have been. The drive to and from port was easy and convenient and the staff at the hotel were friendly and helpful. We both agreed it was one of the best excursion experiences either of us had ever had.

Fantastic experience with Edison and Orlando aboard the Jesse James boat. 6-hour private tour covering the East and North side of the island. Saw some amazing wildlife and a beautiful reef.
– January 2024

Our family reserved a private charter to go snorkeling with Antonio and his captain, Edison. We were not disappointed in our decision and ultimately turned our 3 hour trip into a 4 hour trip. To start, we were met at the port by a private driver holding a sign with our name. Upon arrival, we were led through the plush, scenic grounds of Puerta Azul to a beautiful private dock. Not a soul around but us, which was a lovely reprieve from our crowded cruise. Antonio was a perfect guide! Well-educated in the reefs, very friendly and sociable. This is my favorite of many snorkeling trips!
