Hydrobiking is a blast and much easier than it looks! Give it a try! - A group of 60+ ladies were traveling together on a Royal Caribbean cruise and signed up to do this excursion. While we were a little unsure about the Hydrobiking we all tried it and loved it! It was much easier than we expected and we were able to cover a good bit of water territory.
After hydrobiking we were able to snorkel and while we didn't go out on the reef because of high winds, snorkeling in the bay proved to be a lot of fun with lots of fish and coral.
We ended the excursion at their private island which is lovely although the food was a bit expensive. We still enjoyed our adventure and they returned us to the cruise ship in plenty of time before we left port.

Hydrobikes are a blast and easier than they look! - We are a group of 5 women, 60+, who were a little anxious about the hydrobike experience. Tyler, our guide, convinced us we could do it so we all went for it. We found it to be much easier than any of us expected and very enjoyable. We were able to pedal around the whole area following Tyler. It was really fun and enjoyable. You can do it!
We also went snorkeling in the bay as the reef area was too rough due to high winds. It was still enjoyable and there was plenty to see. We wrapped up our visit with a stop at the private island which is lovely. We had lunch which we though was a bit expensive but it didn't put a damper on our overall visit.

Amazing excursion snorkeling and hydro biking - We had an amazing time snorkeling with Luke, he was extremely knowledgeable of local species of fish and corals. We never felt rushed and had plenty of time to explore wherever we wanted to go. The owner of the company, Mark, communicated with us often and was very detailed. He provided transportation from our hotel to the docks. Trent was our tour guide for the day and joined us for the hydro biking part of the tour. He took us on a tour of French Cay and provided us with local culture as he was born and raised on the island. Mark, Trent & Luke are the real deal, you will truly enjoy your experience with them. We are looking forward to our time with them again in the near future.

Absolutely, fantastic day trip! - Absolutely, fantastic adventure! Renie & Tyler were wonderful hosts! The hydrobikes were VERY easy to ride and a fun way to traverse the beautiful Caribbean waters. The snorkeling was like swimming in a salt water fish tank! And lastly, the private beach was stunning, calm and had an excellent bar with great drinks and food!

Great day - It was to windy and choppy to do the hydrobikes, and instead they took us to the sloth and money tour then on to snorkeling and the Bradys cay. Victor our persoal guide was wonderful all day! Very informative and polite!. The snorkling guides were very good. My mom never figured out snorkling but they tried so hard to help her. The island at Brady cay was fantasic food. The Pinacolata was like absent of alcohol but tasted good anyway...lol

Great FUN peddling on the water!!!! - Our driver, Victor was delightful. He was very knowledgable about Roatan and was happy to answer our questions and share his experiences. He was an easy companion and a very careful driver, as well, which was appreciated by us. When we arrived at the dock, we enjoyed seeing the monkeys and macaws and sloths that are part of the nature area. Then we met Remie, who was a fantastic Hydrobike instructor and guide and we spent quite a while on the water, with Remie pointing out all the sights and telling amusing stories. When we returned to the dock, we were transported by boat to a lovely beach where the water was delightful. When we had to go back to our cruise ship, Victor was right there waiting for us, making sure we arrived with time to spare before departure. Both Victor and Remie made the day very enjoyable and memorable.
