Roat\u00e1n is part of a group of archipelagos in the western Caribbean and is located between Cuba and the mainland. Surrounded by the largest barrier reef system in the Northern Hemisphere and is located between the islands of Utila and Guanaja, with several smaller islands in between called Morat and Barbareta. The island is approximately 40 miles long, 3 miles wide, and has annual temperatures with highs of 89.6 \u00b0F (32 \u00b0C) and lows of 77 \u00b0F (25 \u00b0C). The reef’s proximity to shore and the protected waters of the Caribbean give many water sports enthusiasts such as scuba divers an advantage.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Best Seasson<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

We have sun between December to September. The rainy season runs from October to November. But you can dive at any time of the year. There is nothing more delicious than diving in the rain (without cold).<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>

Recommended suit:<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

We normally dive with a swimsuit and a sun rash guard. But if you are going to do 3 dives per day, a short or long 3mm wetsuit is enough to dive comfortably. Remember that the water is saltier than in other places.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\t<\/div>\n<\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_content_width=”grid” disable_background_image=”1024″ enable_surfer_icon=”no” css=”.vc_custom_1636957570105{padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 150px !important;}” simple_background_image=”1224″ background_image_position=”bottom center” simple_background_color=”#ffffff”][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1580730193678{padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][vc_row_inner row_content_width=”grid” css=”.vc_custom_1581599412600{padding-top: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_inner offset=”vc_col-lg-5 vc_col-md-12″]
