mundocruiser Posted November 10, 2019 #1 Share Posted November 10, 2019 We are thinking of touring Roatan, Honduras with Victor Bodden, but have read some articles that Honduras may not be safe to visit. What experiences have you had in Roatan? Would you visit it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merion_Mom Posted November 10, 2019 #2 Share Posted November 10, 2019 You are a million per cent safe in Victor's care. I wouldn't go wandering off by myself, but with a well-known and respected local guide like Victor Bodden, no worries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slidergirl Posted November 10, 2019 #3 Share Posted November 10, 2019 My hotel manager did a week of diving from Roatan a month ago - she came back alive, safe and sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leaveitallbehind Posted November 10, 2019 #4 Share Posted November 10, 2019 (edited) Roatan is very safe and we found the people very friendly and helpful. We did an independently planned beach day at West Bay beach and had no issues whatsoever when we were there this past March.

Vlgg731 Posted November 11, 2019 #5 Share Posted November 11, 2019 We did an excursion of zip lining and then to the beach and felt safe a couple of years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Host Carolyn Posted November 11, 2019 #6 Share Posted November 11, 2019 If you have a tour with Victor --- or any of the reputable tour guys -- no worries. Like anywhere there is crime on the island but overall it is one of the better island destinations in terms of safety. My son lives there and while they don't do out a lot at night on the east end where they live that is fairly remote the tourist areas are fine. Enjoy the island...it's beautiful, people are very friendly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#1TravelMom Posted November 18, 2019 #7 Share Posted November 18, 2019 We've toured with Ronystours 10+ times. Always felt completely safe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grenadyr Posted November 21, 2019 #8 Share Posted November 21, 2019 My daughter and I just got back from Roatan last week. We used a local dive shop who provided the transportation to the other side of the island. We felt perfectly safe the entire time and wouldn't hesitate to return again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
