Useful information [edit]

Though all Roatan beaches are public, West Bay hotels charge some fee to get to the beach. However, if you will be able to access the beach without any fees (for example, by boat from the West End beach), no one has the right to ask money from you. Of course, in this case you should not use hotel's infrastructure.

Sometimes Tabyana Beach and Bananarama Beach are considered as separate beaches. However, it makes no sense, as once get to the beach, you will be able to walk freely to any part of it.
