Roatan Zipline & Sanctuary Park Tour — Chocolate, Rum and Panoramic Caribbean Views
Combine a high-flying zipline with a cultural loop through Sanctuary Park, a chocolate workshop and a rum stop — a four‑hour private tour that pairs adrenaline with local insight on Roatán.
The Experience
Before You Go
Bring reef‑safe sunscreen
Use mineral-based sunscreen to protect both your skin and the coral ecosystems you’ll see from viewpoints.
Wear closed‑toe shoes
Trails to platforms and the zipline run include uneven steps and roots—sturdy footwear improves safety and comfort.
Hydrate before and during
Tropical heat plus physical activity means carry a 1L refillable bottle and sip regularly to avoid fatigue.
Secure loose items
Use pockets or leave phones in the provided lockers when zipping — harnesses and speed can fling small items away.
