Is there a drug and crime problem in Roatan?
Roatan is much safer and more drug free than most major cities in the US. The police are very vigilant and the government, as part of its drive to promote tourism, is clamping down on such crime as does occur. Crime targeted at tourists is very rare. The Honduran government is working hard to ensure that the problems experienced in some of the bigger Caribbean Islands do not take hold here. There is an agreement with the US to help stamp out drugs and there is a “Say No to Drugs” campaign directed at the youth on the Island.
