Thank you for choosing to dive with Roatan Divers! We are looking forward to diving with you, and we hope you enjoy the high quality service and fantastic diving that Roatan Divers and Roatan is known for.

We have worked with cruise ships for 5 years and have never had a guest not make their departure, so please know that we are very comfortable working with ships. To ensure a smooth cruise ship stop with us with us, please read through the following terms and conditions prior to your arrival.

  • Please change your watch to local time on arrival. The local time zone will be specified in your e-mails.

  • Please do not try to meet the transportation earlier than the arranged time as the transportation may not be there yet.

  • Transportation must be paid in cash directly to the driver.

Payment Guidelines

  • Final payments may be made in cash (US dollars or Honduran lempiras) or by all major credit cards.

    • We offer a 5% discount if you pay by cash.

    • Credit cards may be processed in Honduran lempiras based on the day's exchange rate.
