Oakridge water taxi tour
Sunday all you can eat steak and lobster brunch at Hole in the Wall restaurant in Jonesville. (this is a hoot. It's on a dock, got to by boat, where the ex-pats hang out).
The Iguana Farm, way cooler than it sounds.
Shopping in Coxen Hole
Zip lines
Mangrove tour
Worlds deepest tourist submarine (2000'!)
Etc etc etc
Rent a car, scooter, or grab a cab. Get out and about, there is no adventure in a sanctuary.
What "resort"? I've only been to Roatan once, but if I recall correctly, I got off the ferry landing, having arrived from the mainland, and took a bus to the West End, found some lodging, did my diving, and managed to take the bus to various villages on the island to check out what there was to see. I can't say I did much touring around on the island, but I did visit some of the towns and villages to see what they were like. Frankly, next time I would stay at a resort, as there didn't seem to be much to see on the island!
