Your Private Roatan ATV Tour, from Jungle Trails to West Bay
This private Roatan ATV tour combines approximately one hour of guided ATV riding with a wildlife sanctuary visit, local island highlights and beach time at Paradise Beach Resort on West Bay Beach. Plan on approximately 4–6 hours for the full experience, including transfers.
Ride an automatic ATV along island trails with a guide, then visit a sanctuary to observe sloths, monkeys and macaws. Continue to a chocolate-tasting stop, local market, a recycling initiative and the iconic ROATAN sign before unwinding by the sea. Sloths can be observed and photographed, but not held or carried.
Your group has dedicated air-conditioned ground transportation and a bilingual local guide. The Paradise Beach Resort day pass includes beach chairs, swimming pool access and Wi-Fi; meals, bar purchases and optional beach activities cost extra. The sanctuary and resort are shared venues, so other visitors may be present.
