Roatan ATV and Zipline Adventure: Jungle Canopy, Wildlife Sanctuary & Beach

The Experience
Before You Go
Secure cameras and phones
Use wrist or chest straps for cameras and phones—the zipline and ATV sections move fast and drops are common.

ATV trails and platform ladders can be rocky or muddy; sturdy shoes improve control and safety.
Hydrate and pace yourself
Bring water and sip regularly—tropical heat plus physical activity raises dehydration risk quickly.
