I have stayed at Seagrape Plantation twice - January 2019 and March 2020 - and highly recommend this dive shop and property for incredible value and experience. The resort staff treats you like part of their family, and most of their guests appear to be return guests for this reason. When I came in January 2019 with my sister (who herself was a return guest), I hadn't been diving in 7 years and was so nervous on my refresher dive. I did 8 dives with Hugo and Kevin and fell in love with diving - and with Roatan - on that trip. The groups per divemaster are always small, and Michael the boat hand is incredibly helpful. I returned in March 2020, this time with three friends. I took my Advanced with Ricky and he is an absolutely fantastic instructor - calm, clear and competent. I did 12 dives, mostly with Ricky but a couple with Kevin and Ricardo. The night dive is surreal with so many octopus feeding, and the 'string of pearls' should be on everyone's bucket list. We left Roatan just hours before Honduras closed its borders due to the global pandemic. The lovely people on this tourism-dependent island must be enduring tremendous hardship right now. I hope to be back in 2021.

Waves of Art Gift Shop is located in West End Village on Roatan Island in Honduras. Roatan is just one of the islands that make up the beautiful group of Bay Islands in Honduras. It's brightly painted facade stands out along the beachside town and is a visual temptation for shoppers, tourists and cruiseship tours. Regularly scheduled Art shows and Art Exhibitions offer the Roatan community and local residents an opportunity to see what island artists are creating. Unique and affordable gifts include a variety of folk art and hand made items that support fair trade organizations, eco-sustainable products and local artisan coops. Most of the beautiful items for sale are made in Honduras and Central America. Waves of Art Gallery and Gift Shop offers tourists and cruiseshippers an opportunity to find that special gift, support a local artist and shop in an air conditioned space.

I have a 'beach house' theme in my home, and a deep love for all things ocean and marine life, so the fine art triptychs (trilogies of waves and such) and gallery quality giclee prints (tropical fruit, flora, people, boats, Caribe scenes) made this a haven. From driftwood dolphin creations (need to go back and order that one for my brother's Roatan house) to unique, hand-painted dolphin bookmarks which I brought back for our Reading Partners/Americorps kids, they have a two-story collection of curated wearables and artisan finds. Beautifully presented and good cross-section of categories that appeal to a diverse range of wallets... ;)

This was a great stop. We learned how this company makes chocolate! We tried cocoa beans, and rubbed chocolate on our skin to feel how healing it can be. You always hear the power of chocolate but today we learned it’s not the chocolate bars from the local grocer that’s healthy! We bought 5 bars of chocolate and savouring everyone! The cookies were also yummy!!!
