📸 Arch’s Iguana & Marine Park | Roatán, Honduras
📝 My Story
One of the highlights of our Roatán stop was visiting Arch’s Iguana & Marine Park — and wow, what an experience! We were surrounded by hundreds of iguanas, got to feed them, and even spotted some huge tarpons in the marina. It was fun, educational, and definitely a great memory from our Western Caribbean cruise.
