Did you eat at Bonsi, JiJi’s and/or Seafood Shack?

Yep, I'm thinking sand fleas. They killed me in little French key. I was itching for weeks. It sucked. Lol

Strahan is likely correct. Sand fleas are common at some beaches and the legs are where you often have bites. Take bug spray next time.

I’m thinking sand fleas. It’s very common in Roatan.

Did you pick up the mattress and actually see the bed bugs?!? Perhaps it was sand fleas?

That worries me but I will still enjoy my cruise in October as you did. Thank you for your review.
