Best beach with chairs to rent?

[GLCAS]

We would like to go to a nice beach and rent a chair and find some shade too. How much should we expect to pay? Or maybe a tour that would take us around and then leave us to enjoy the beach and then finish with a bit of shopping. Suggestions anyone??

Most of the West Bay beaches offer shade and sun (Tabayana, Bananarama, etc.) Read thru the threads here...there is alot of info. Not sure if there are 2 of you, or what, but you may want to check out Victor Bodden's operation (there are other good ones, as well, but we have only used Victor). You can get a driver for the day to take you anywhere, and they will wait for you while you stay at the beach, shop, etc. For ideas of things to do, check out boddentours dot com...gives you an idea of different activites and prices. Renting a chair is usually about $10 each. Also, once we were there as part of a group and we went to Fosters (also on West Bay) and we got a rate which included transportation to and from the ship, along with the chairs. Remember when considering prices, it is quite a haul from the ports to West Bay, so the prices may seem high. But the individual attention and the trip with a gorgeous view are well worth it!

Have fun...Roatan is a wonderful place to get out and explore! It's our favorite!:)
