Roatán's reef near West End, a short taxi from the Isla Tropicale cruise port

Diving from Isla Tropicale (formerly Mahogany Bay)

Docking at Isla Tropicale, Carnival's Roatán port (formerly Mahogany Bay)? It's a short taxi to our West End beachfront for diving, snorkeling, or a beach day.

Isla Tropicale — recently rebranded from Mahogany Bay — is Carnival’s cruise port on Roatán, on the island’s south side just east of Coxen Hole. If you’re sailing with Carnival (or a Carnival-family line), this is your port, and West End is an easy independent day trip from here.

Getting to West End

From Isla Tropicale it’s about a 20–30 minute taxi to our beachfront in the Lower West End. Take a taxi from the port (agree the fare first) and ask for the Lower West End / Sea Hunt Divers drop — we’re at the calm end of the village, right on the sand, where the road ends and the beach begins.

What to do on your stop

  • Scuba diving for certified divers on Roatán’s reefs and walls
  • Try scuba for complete beginners — no experience needed
  • A family beach day — snorkel, swim, and eat on the quiet West End sand instead of the busy West Bay resorts

Booking around your ship

Plan around your all-aboard time. Send us your ship’s name and in/out times and we’ll map a day with a comfortable buffer for the taxi back to Isla Tropicale, with gear and a spot ready when you arrive.
