West Bay Divers, Roatan

[Ole Larson]

My wife and I are staying at the Kimpton Resort/Hotel, in Roatan. The dive shop associated with the hotel is West Bay Divers. Does anyone have experience with them, or should I seek out another dive operator?

Thanks in advanced,
Peter

I dove with them in February when their dive shop was 5 minutes away from that hotel and my experience was good. The shop they put in the hotel is NEW (and they added more boats too) so I assume they also have new staff that I don't know.

@renalea also dove with them in September and seems to have enjoyed the experience. Didn't specify which specific location of theirs they were diving with, but here is the post:

We’ve been to Roatan so many times since the ‘80’s. This was the 1st time in September! The weather was PERFECT, the water so warm that even a skin wasn’t needed but I worn one for protection from scrapes…. We dove with West Bay Divers for the 1st time and they were awesome! Very nice boats, 6 divers max (one trip was only us, a guide, and the boat captain), and long bottom times. We were there for 10 days and from now on, it’ll always be September!
