Reef-Safe Sunscreen Required
Roatán sits on the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef — the second largest in the world. Please bring mineral-only, reef-safe sunscreen (zinc oxide or titanium dioxide). Chemical sunscreens are harmful to coral and are restricted on the reef. We'll be asking all guests to use reef-safe products during water activities.
