The Island of Roatan is located 30 miles off the coast of mainland Honduras.
Roatan Town, known locally as Coxen Hole, is the largest city on the Island and the main port of entry into the Bay Islands. The town has little to recommend it and security for yachts is reported to be bad, so skippers might be advised to take a taxi to the Port Captain’s Office in Coxen Hole from one of the marinas or the anchorage in French Cay Harbour.
French Cay Harbor and the surrounding area have suffered devastating fires in the last few years, with many locals losing their homes and businesses. If you want to help visit SV Ultra's projects in the area - on Instagram: #ultracommunityprojects, or Facebook: Ultra Community Projects.
There have been a number of incidents reported to CSSN involving yachts anchored in West End Coxen Hole and French Harbour. See Security Reports for Honduras for the latest updates.
