The basics
The Roatán Butterfly Garden is an excellent spot to learn more about the flora and fauna of Honduras (including boa constrictors). Tours of the facility are self-guided, and visitors are provided a chart to help them identify the butterfly and plant species they might see. For a full-day eco-adventure, opt for a tour that combines both the Butterfly Garden and a hike to the top of Carambola Mountain inside Carambola Garden.
Things to know before you go
The Roatán Butterfly Garden is popular with families.
Book a private tour of the island to ensure the butterfly garden is included on your itinerary.
Be sure to bring your camera for photo ops inside the enclosure.
How to get there
On the island of Roatán, the butterfly garden is located just ahead of the entrance to West End, along the southern side of the main road. The best way to get there is to take a taxi or join a guided tour.
When to get there
The garden is open Sunday to Friday from morning to very early evening. Plan to visit on a day with little rain in the forecast, as butterflies can be difficult to spot in damp weather.
Where to see animals in Roatán
The Roatán Butterfly Garden isn’t the only place on the island for observing native wildlife. Gumbalimba Park has its own bird sanctuary, monkey refuge, and a host of resident iguanas, while the Blue Harbor Tropical Arboretum is a great place to spot colorful birds, wild rodents, and white-tailed deer.
