The best things to do in Roatan at night start with the sunset on the west side of the island and end with fire on the sand: the Roatan Fire Show performs every Wednesday at 8:00 pm at Mayan Princess, Friday at 7:00 pm at Infinity Bay and Sunday at 6:00 pm at Bananarama, all on West Bay Beach.
When the day trips are over and the boats come back to the dock, Roatán slows down. The sea turns orange, the music gets softer and the beach becomes the island's living room.
Watch the sunset in West Bay
West Bay and West End face the sunset, so any evening with clear skies is a show on its own. Find a spot on the sand a little before the sun touches the water: the colors last only a few minutes.
See the Roatan Fire Show
Ronis Villeda and his wife Evlyn perform about 25 minutes of fire dance on the beach, with 9 to 10 acts: fire staff, fire fans, whip, juggling, triple poi, fire hula hoop and more. It is free to watch for the guests of each resort; if you are staying somewhere else, ask the resort first or send us a message.

Dinner by the water
West End and West Bay have restaurants right on the sand, from simple seafood places to resort dining. Many of them stay lively until late, so a walk along the beach after dinner is part of the evening.
Under the water, after dark
The reef that makes Roatán famous changes at night. Several dive shops on the island offer guided night dives and night snorkeling for certified divers and confident swimmers: ask your hotel or dive center which nights they go out.
A private fire show for your night
