Mahogany Bay Carnival Cruise Ship dock with 2 Ships in

I was driving by Dixon Cove (Mahogany Bay) yesterday and was blow away by the view from the main road of two large cruise ships at dock at the same time. It really is amazing progress. There was another ship of equal size at the Royal Caribbean dock in Coxen Hole that same day so we had 3 large ships in at the same time.

Roatan is such a large island that I really did not notice a big difference in the amount of traffic or people around. The cruisers get picked up and taken away to day spots for the most part and then back to the ship for them leaving behind some money for the economy and hopefully spurring the true travelers among them to come back and experience the "Real Roatan" we love day to day.

That all said the picture says it all.
