Gumbalimba Park — zipline & wildlife

Gumbalimba Park sits in the green hills at West Bay. It's one of the easiest places on Roatán to see the island's wildlife up close. You'll walk shaded garden paths where white-faced monkeys, scarlet macaws and iguanas wander freely. A guide shows you around and talks about the plants and animals as you go. Along the way you'll pass a cave museum on the island's pirate past and an insectarium. The walk ends at a stretch of beach.

If you want some adrenaline, the park's canopy zipline runs across 13 cables between 17 platforms above the trees. You can visit the park on its own, do only the zipline, or combine both. There are also options with kayaking and snorkeling. Golf cart rides, lockers and kayak rentals are available as extras. We'll set up the mix that suits your group and, for cruise guests, the round-trip transfer.
