Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day comes from Elena Gonzalez-Maldonado, taken near Buccaneer in French Harbour.
When people ask me the best time to visit Roatan, I often tell them August and September, especially if they are interested in boating, fishing, diving and snorkeling. The primary reason is the winds tend to be calmer. We will really see those calm winds and seas tomorrow through Saturday.

There is hardly a cloud in the sky this morning and dry conditions will be common through this week. We wake up to 17 mph east winds and seas 4 feet. We should calm a bit to 3 feet through the afternoon, but the big change will be tomorrow through Saturday, when we are expecting east winds 5-10 mph and seas 1-2 feet. There should be times, especially on Friday, when winds are almost still and the sea is flat calm. Sunday into next week, we will be back to 15 mph east winds and seas 2-3 feet.

Speaking of being in the sea, there is nothing more gorgeous that a healthy canine coat swimming in Roatan’s crystal clear waters. To keep your pet’s coat nice and healthy contact Mitch Cummins at Roatan Pets and order specially formulated, locally sourced pet food that keeps your good boy healthy and ready for a splash in the sea.



Low tide is 1 p.m. Have a great Wednesday!
