Our Personal Paradise!

The Swim Family has always loved Roatan, Honduras so I was really excited about bringing Ashley here for the first time. Typically when we visit we head over to the West End for a bit of snorkeling. This time, however, we opted to try something new. My dad read about a place called Little French Key online and as soon as we watched the videos from their website we knew we had to visit.

Little French Key is a private island just a short ferry ride away from Roatan. When we arrived on the island, we were the first visitors of the day. We were given a tour of the island and introduced to the animals that they have rescued.

We got to play with a baby jaglion cub, hold a monkey and visit the lion cubs. One of the lion cubs was very interested in Harper and stalked her. It was uncomfortably funny!

Next, we staked out a cove where we could relax for the remainder of the day. Our cove was perfect! There was a small jetty that blocked the bigger waves from coming in and there were shaded areas for those who wanted to stay out of the sun. A table was within wading distance for those of us who liked to take our libations out into the water.

Our visit to the island included a fabulous lunch and a two free alcoholic beverages per person. We also had all access to the sporting equipment. We kayaked, used the stand up paddle boards and snorkeled the cove.
