Carnival to build terminal here.

Just got our Cruise Travel magazine today. There is an article in it about Carnival Corporation and plc signing an agreement to build and operate a cruise terminal on the island of Roatan. Development of the facility is to be called Mahogany Bay - Roatan and work is expected to be started in the fall of 2007 and to be completed by the summer of 2009 at a cost of $50 M.

The cruise facility will be situated on 20 acres on the waterfront. It will consist of a 2 birth cruise terminal capable of accommodating the largest post-Panamax vessels and up to 7000 passengers.

Adjacent to the facility will be a 35,000 square foot Welcome Center. There will be shops, restaurants and bars. There will also be a 60 foot high lighthouse, a lagoon cascading waterfalls and a nature trail.

A transportation hub with the ability to accommodate taxis, rental cars and tour buses is also being planned. A variety of shore excursions to be provided by local tours operators is also being developed.

My Signature Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me! I want people to know why I look this way. I've traveled a long way, and some of the roads weren't paved.
