Creator's Key Takeaways

We got to experience local culture, get out on the water through the mangroves, try some incredible food, and still make it back in time just to slow down and enjoy the port before heading back to the ship.

But what you are getting is usually a much better price, more flexibility, and a much more personal tour.

And I'm just going to say this, those were to me the best empanadas I've ever had.

If you really want to get to know the place, getting off the ship and taking the excursion makes a big difference.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book a private tour with a local guide for a more personal experience.
If booking outside the cruise line, be prepared to find your way out of the port area.
Try the empanadas at Good Island Taste in Punta Gorda.

YouTube Video Description

Roatan Honduras is one of those cruise ports where you can either stay at the port or get out and explore the island, and in this video we show you how we did both. We booked a private tour in Roatan through Viator with a local guide and explored Punta Gorda, learned about the Garifuna culture, and took a boat ride through the mangrove tunnels that were once used by pirates in the 1700s. Along the way we got real insight into the island from a local perspective, something you don’t get on a typical cruise excursion. We also stopped for local food at Good Island Tastes, which ended up being one of the highlights of the day. After the tour, we headed back to Coxen Hole cruise port to walk around, check out the shops, grab a drink, and show you what the port has to offer. If you’re cruising to Roatan Honduras and wondering what to do, whether to book an excursion, or what Coxen Hole vs Mahogany Bay is like, this video will give you a real look at what to expect so you can plan your perfect port day. #honduras #roatan #cruise #norwegian #travel ✈️ How would you like to fly and NOT have jet lag?
