Roatan Half-Day JungleTop Zipline, Wildlife & Beach Adventure
Fly above Roatán’s treetops on seven thousand feet of zipline, meet capuchin monkeys and sloths, then cool off on a white-sand beach. This half-day JungleTop experience combines adrenaline, wildlife viewing and a seaside finish—ideal for cruise stopovers.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear closed-toe shoes
Sturdy sneakers provide grip on platforms and protect your feet during short hikes between lines.
Secure loose items
Use provided lockers or leave phones and hats in the van—items can fall while zipping at speed.
Hydrate before you go
Bring a refillable water bottle; tropical heat and harness straps make you sweat faster than you expect.
Bring reef-safe sunscreen and a swimsuit
Plan to swim at a nearby beach after the canopy—use biodegradable sunscreen to protect coral.

Conservation Note
Operators and guides often emphasize reef-safe practices and limited-footprint trails; visitors should use biodegradable sunscreen and avoid touching coral or wildlife.
Roatán’s modern economy shifted from fishing and small-scale agriculture to tourism in the late 20th century; canopy tours developed as low-footprint attractions tied to the island’s reef and forest appeal.
