Food Scene
Delicious steaks and seafood right on the beach. They have a second location over in West End as well. Meat is pricey on the island, but if you are going to splurge, this is a great place.

Nearby resort with a great swimming pool. This is an all-inclusive, but you can walk up and pay ala carte for meals. We go over here for their breakfast buffet to change things up so we don't always have to eat at the Infinity Bay buffet, and then we hang out at the pool for a while.

Have the Infinity Bay water taxi take you right here to sit at the dock bar, and watch the sunset. Have drinks and appetizers and then walk into the hotel and eat at the restaurant. YUM! Have the water taxi come back for you, or stay later and check out Sundowners bar next door for a later night and take a regular taxi back to the resort.

Drinks & Nightlife
Live music and a beach bar scene here in the evenings if you are looking for that. Restaurant touts the pizza (from their neighboring restaurant Pizzarama with a big wood fired oven) and their sushi - but it's just ok. It's better to eat at La Palapa right at Infinity Bay and then walk over here for the music and a drink.

You'll see the locals and tourists getting more hammered as the night unfolds around the bonfire at this grungy but fun beach bar. Stumble up the street to the Booty Bar for more of a nightclub scene with TV screens, speakers, lights and a dance floor.

Sightseeing
Ask the concierge... Walk 10 min up the road to the Keyhole Bay main gate, then take the dirt road on the right and head 5 mins down to the water (just west of where the marker is on this map). You'll find a two-story dock that you can walk out over the keyhole and the rocky "iron shore" and look across to see mainland Honduras. Easy nature walk and great spot for photos.

Essentials
If you want a full grocery store and note the small convenience type stores in West Bay or West End, go here. The prices are better than Eldon's which across the parking lot. Eldon's carries many American brands, but Plaza Mar has a lot as well.

Entertainment & Activities
If you are feeling adventurous you can walk to this nearby zipline. Ask the concierge. Some cabs will also take you (and pick you up) to this - or to other zipline companies (there are 7 different ones) around the island because they get a small commission (free gas and/or free passes for their family).

Fun for kids. Monkeys & parrots sit on your head. See Iguanas and other tropical animals. Pool, cafe, swinging bridge, museum and other things are included with your admission. Very good zipline (12 platforms) - separate price. Overall the park is overpriced (and can be overwhelmed with cruise ship visitors so don't go there when there is a ship in) but it is nearby and convenient. You can walk up the beach and get here (no taxi required) or have the Infinity Bay water taxi drop you off. If you want to do all this at less cost, talk to the concierge & plan to visit one of the many similar parks and zipline operators across the island. You'll get a better deal even with cab.
