Thread: New cruise facilities?

We heard some time back that there were new cruise facilities in the works for the Port of Roatan . . .

I believe they were supposed to be finished for this cruising seasion, but have heard nothing new.

Does anyone know?

Actuaally, I did read that a faciity had very recently opened, but could find no other details.
So, if anyone has any details ... please?

When we were there a year ago they were still working on it- and it was looking nice, but they weren't done...

anyone been there very recently?

We are eager to hear about the new port area as well. We sail on the NCL Jewel on 12/20 and this port is one of our stops.

Carnival is a part owner of a new facility scheduled to open Nov 19th with Carnival Legend.

"The stunning new $62 million Mahogany Bay cruise center on Roatan in the Bay Islands of Honduras is something we are all excited about. Construction continues on the 20-acre project which is expected to welcome its first cruise ship the Carnival Legend on November 19."


I am not aware of the other pier closing, but it might. I think the Carnival one can accommodate 2 ships.

Thanks, Zy!

sorry... didn't read the other thread before posting here....

oops.

We were there in May at the regular terminal. They were working on the cruise center there; some shops were open. Nothing terribly exciting then IMHO, but it sure looked a lot better than a couple of years ago, when there was basically nothing there but some asphalt, pebbles, and a chain link fence.

But I guess you were asking about the new, separate Carnival cruise terminal. I had forgotten about it, but now I recall that we passed by it, and very little had been done with it then.

Wow! I didn't even know thay had made improvemeends to the OLD one. Last time I was there, it was asphalt and a chain link fence!
