Fodor's Expert Review Roatán Institute for Marine Sciences
Honduras
Educational Institution
One of the attractions at Anthony's Key Resort, the Roatán Institute for Marine Sciences is an educational center that researches bottlenose dolphins and other marine animals. A dolphin show takes place every day at 4 pm. For an additional fee, you can participate in a Dolphin Encounter, which allows you to interact with the dolphins while either swimming or snorkeling. There are also programs for children ages 5 to 14, including snorkeling experiences.
Cruise-ship passengers must make reservations for dolphin encounters through their ship's excursion desk.
