Roatan has a long and fascinating history. Did you know that the island was first inhabited by indigenous tribes of great linguistic and cultural diversity?
In the late 17th century, the British settled on the island and developed it into an important trading port. The town of Port Royal was one of the busiest and most prosperous ports in all of the Caribbean.
