Oak Ridge

A stilt-house fishing village on eastern Roatán, nicknamed the “Venice of the Caribbean,” where you can take a boat through mangrove waterways.

Oak Ridge is a traditional fishing port on eastern Roatán. Colorful wooden stilt houses line the bay, and many residents get around by boat. At the dock you can hire a boat to tour the harbor and pass through a mangrove tunnel to Jonesville and the east coast, about 30 minutes one way. Seafood is cheap in town and daily life is lively. Visitors are far fewer here than on the West End.
