Half Moon Bay

Half Moon Bay, at the heart of West End on Roatán’s north shore, is a calm, crescent-shaped inlet known for easy snorkeling, shore dives, and sunset views. Protected waters host reef fish, seagrass, and occasional turtles just a short swim from the beach. A compact public beach and modest pier anchor a strip of dive shops, casual eateries, and small bars, making it convenient for first-time visitors and budget travelers. It’s lively but not rowdy, with quick access to water taxis for West Bay. Best for swimmers, snorkelers, and divers; limited shade and small beach area may deter sunbathers.
