Pigeon Cays

Tiny cays off the far eastern tip of Roatán, usually reached by boat; side-shore in E–NE wind and often choppy. Remote with little shelter on the cays, so go with boat support.

Remote location: ride with the local school.A school operates here, so lessons and supervised sessions are fine. Riding on your own is not recommended unless you're experienced, because rescue and medical help are far away.
