Eldon’s Supermarket mainly known as: Your One-Stop Shop for Island Essentials
Planning to visit Roatan and want to stock up on groceries before heading to your accommodation in the West End? While taxis are readily available from the airport, you can save a few bucks by walking to one of the two Eldon’s supermarkets near the airport and then taking a cab from there.
Which Eldon’s Should I Go to?
Both Eldon’s supermarkets are situated within a 1.5-kilometer radius of the airport. The one on Main Street is slightly closer, while the other one is located off Carretera Principal. If you’re short on time, head to the one on Main Street for a quicker walk. However, if you’re looking for a more scenic route, the Eldon’s off Carretera Principal is a good option. It’s along a quiet road with lush vegetation, offering a taste of Roatan’s natural beauty.
Where to Find a Cab Near Eldon’s
Both Eldon’s supermarkets have taxi stands nearby. You can find them right outside the supermarkets, making it convenient to hop into a cab after your grocery shopping.
Cab Fare from Eldon’s to the West End
The standard fare for a cab from the airport to the West End is $25. However, if you stop at Eldon’s for groceries, the fare increases by $10. This is standard practice for taxi drivers in Roatan. So, expect to pay around $35 for the total trip, including the stop at Eldon’s.
Public Transportation Option
While taxis are the most convenient option for getting from Eldon’s to the West End, there is also a public bus service available. The bus fare is significantly lower, but the journey takes longer and may be less comfortable, especially if you have a lot of groceries.
Planning Your Trip
Here’s a suggested itinerary for your grocery shopping and taxi ride to the West End:
- Exit the airport and walk to the Eldon’s supermarket of your choice.
- After your grocery shopping, head to the taxi stand outside the supermarket.
- Inform the taxi driver that you need to go to the West End and that you have groceries.
