"Tourists... here??? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" Isla de Roatán Tourist Trap Tip by John195123

It's hard to think of Coxen Hole as a tourist trap, but it is becoming more and more so with cruise ships and touristos coming in. There are stores and stuff whose prices have gone up... grrr... thanks to tourists... grrr... Oh well.

Unique Suggestions: Don't buy stuff? I dunno... they need the money, but i'm watching this island fall into the suntan-lotion-covered hands of tourists. Prices are going up, cheapo stores are going up to supply junk to tourists... at least I can still get two cokes for 17 lempiras... for a while...
One of the islands' newest problems is traffic. Never before have there been as many cars... but today, and in the future...grrr

Fun Alternatives: Go there, don't watse money there... the West End is cheaper for buying stuff, I think. Anyway, go into H.B. Warren and buy some soap or coke... or a sandwich.... or better yet, just drive in, park and walk around.
