Arch's Iguana and Marine Park, Wildlife sanctuary in French Cay, Roatán, Honduras.
The conservation center maintains a population of over 4000 iguanas, including native Black Spiny-Tailed Iguanas found throughout Central America.
The sanctuary began operations in 1980 under the direction of Sherman Arch, establishing itself as one of the first animal protection centers on the island.
The park contributes to local environmental education by teaching visitors about Roatán's indigenous wildlife through guided interactions with iguanas and marine species.
Visitors can access the park from Monday through Saturday between 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM, with options for guided tours and transportation from nearby ports.
The facility combines terrestrial and marine exhibits, allowing guests to feed both iguanas on land and various fish species in the seaside section.
