    Bay Island Beach Resort "Roatan" Report

    Just got back from 1 week in Roatan. Had a great time. The Resort was very nice and laid back. Only 12 people at the Resort. The dive boat had only 8 or 9 divers on it. We met some really nice people and look forward to going back again. We also did the Shark dive and that was quite exciting. Nothing like swiming with 8 foot reef sharks. The Canopy tour was fun as well, nothing like flying though the trees of the rain forest. The food was good, the bed comfortable and the hosts very obliging. If your looking for a small, laid back, "homey" resort, BIBR is a great option. We did 16 dives over our stay. Say hi to Big DAddy for me!

    Glad to hear you enjoyed BIBR- isn't Big Daddy a trip? He's quite a character! (For those who don't know who we're talking about- Big Daddy is a frequent guest at BIBR- he started the Big Daddy clothes line) BIBR is a nice resort with some great people!
    Force fins aren't evil, just misunderstood. We here at force fin rescue lovingly care for and provide homes for abused or neglected force fins. Please don't burn them or abandon them in a dumpster. We will gladly accept any unwanted force fins or cash donations! Thank-you,

    he sure is. We enjoyed many dives with him. Infact, he never missed one, except he doesn't do night dives.

    LOL...Thats too funny. He is a character. I met him in the spring of 2003, its good to here that he is still himself
    Men are like a fine wine. They start out as grapes, and it's up to women to stomp the crap out of them until they turn into something acceptable to have dinner with.

    Thanks for the review, we are leaving for BIBR in 14 days and I am excited. I will say hello to Big Daddy for you.

    Have fun, just bring your "OFF" bug spray, it works great. Ask Big Daddy what he did what that bottle of Tequilla I gave him to pass around with the guys.
