    Roatan, West End

    Seagrape is at the end of the same street as Cocolobo, good dive operation.

    One night in Roatan?

    Combined hotel and dive operations that I’m familiar with in West End are Seagrape, Splash Inn, and Coconut tree. Recommend in that order. Coconut is an instructor school also, lots of younger folks, on the busiest corner in town. Splash hotel is behind the dive shop, so away from the main...

    Gear too heavy to walk on boat/climb ladder

    Great service for everybody, every time, at these places - Seagrape and Splash Inn, both in West End, Roatan Honduras.

    something to consider when deciding which dive op to use on roatan

    Seagrape recommended that I stop in the Marine Park office while in town , 5 minute walk, and buy the wristband directly from them (and a T-shirt too, of course). That way there is no doubt, and no money-management at the resort.

    Just back from Roatan and Seagrape Plantation

    Absolutely great place to stay and great diving operation. And there is a restaurant next door, if you don't want to walk 5 minutes to town.

    Weather?

    I agree about this year's water temps.... was diving from West End April 19 to May 4, 2014 and it was a little chilly, still. Was OK with a 1 mil shorty, but it wasn't bathwater.

    Roatan Suggestions please

    toddthecat - you were on the wrong end of Roatan (isolated) you don't know your butt from a shotgun barrel about West End. and Aztec, New Mexico is the stinkiest armpit town I ever saw in the southwest.

    Must do.... dive Blue Channel. Straight out from West End. They will know.

    Picking a diving trip

    If you're not set on shore diving, Roatan is very reasonable. Diving is very good to excellent and the West End is very affordable. Flights tend to be a little more - in the $6-700 range but you won't need a car since cabs are cheap and a good idea due to liability. We walked around the West End...

    Considering the Caribbean,,,, but where?

    Air is a little more than Cozumel, but less than Bonaire or Turks. When you get there, rooms are 57 to 69 a day. do West End - Night walking the street bars is way cool. Dive shop, bar, restaurant, hotel every 50 feet. Reef is incredible everywhere, cant buy a bad dive, and they're $35US. Don't...
