On the eastern-most fringe of The Islands of The Bahamas, facing out into to the Atlantic Ocean lies the 19 km long, 8 km wide island of San Salvador. Home to miles of pristine and secluded beaches, an emerald sea of sparkling clarity, wealth of challenging reef and wreck dive sites and a local population of around 1,000 San Salvador is the ultimate escape for divers, fishermen, yachtsmen and anyone who yearns to relax in a serene atmosphere.
As the exposed peak of a submerged mountain that plunges 15,000 feet to the ocean floor, the island is home to many monuments, ruins, shipwrecks, relics from Loyalist times and a fascinating museum, filled with historical artefacts dating back to the Indian days, all of which combine to shed light upon its history.
