Isla Tropicale (recently rebranded from Mahogany Bay) is Carnival’s cruise port on Roatán, on the island’s south side just east of Coxen Hole. If you’re sailing with Carnival (or a Carnival-family line), this is your port, and West End is an easy independent day trip from here.
Getting to West End
From Isla Tropicale it’s about a 20–30 minute taxi to our beachfront in the Lower West End. Take a taxi from the port (agree the fare first) and ask for the Lower West End / Sea Hunt Divers drop. We’re at the calm end of the village, right on the sand, where the road ends and the beach begins.
What to do on your stop
- Scuba diving for certified divers on Roatán’s reefs and walls
- Try scuba for complete beginners, no experience needed
- A family beach day to snorkel, swim, and eat on the quiet West End sand instead of the busy West Bay resorts
Booking around your ship
Plan around your all-aboard time. Send us your ship’s name and in/out times and we’ll map a day with a comfortable buffer for the taxi back to Isla Tropicale, with gear and a spot ready when you arrive.
