Whale Sharks - Roatan
Whale sharks are the largest fish in the world. The largest confirmed
visual sighting has been of one over 40 feet long, weighing 21 tons, (+/- 47,000 pounds). The Bay Islands are one of nine places in the world that whale sharks can be encountered on a regular basis. There is no guarantee that you will see or be able to interact with these gentle giants but the reality of it is that you have a chance at the experience of a lifetime.
There are some hotels on Roatan that do excursions to see the Whale Sharks and there is the 'Whale Shark & Oceanic Institute' on the island of Utila. If you are feeling adventurous,and want to do something that very few if any of your friends have done, this maybe something to consider on your next trip to the island.

Happy July 4th - New Helipad
There is a new helipad on Roatan, the only licensed helipad on the island outside the airport, and it’s at Keyhole Bay, where our RE/MAX Western Sunsets office is located. Being licensed means the helipad is regulated and meets all international daytime requirements. So, if you plan to arrive by helicopter, for a modest landing fee we can accommodate your visit to West Bay at the Keyhole Bay Helipad. The capacity is two helicopters at a time and we are averaging 10 helicopter visits per month, so please allow at least 3 hours notice in case flight adjustments are needed. For information, call the Keyhole Bay office at 2445-5029 or Dan Taylor directly at 9823-7922.
