Why the Bahamas ? Why San Sal

San Salvador Bahamas

Why San Salvador ? Well, I could just let the pictures speak for themselves……….

San Sal has a lot of advantages over nearly all other Bahamas Islands. The most important thing is accessibility. San Salvador airport is a port of entry with an 8000 feet runway, big enough for all planes to land. The runway is paved and in great condition.San Salvador is only 55 minutes from the United States by Air.

San Salvador already has a power plant, a reverse osmosis water plant and fiber optic high speed cable. There are shops and restaurants, a gas station and a coin laundry, churches and schools, hotels, diving facilities and kit surfing resort.

The main Highway, Queens´s highway is paved and circles around the whole Island. For more then 12 years Club med has successfully operated a first class resort on the island.

San Salvador Bahamas is one of the most incredible sites in the world for diving. The visibility is very good, pristine reefs and lots of tropical fish and other sea life.

Every year there is a Billfish Tournament, they call this the best fishing area in the Caribbean, Cat Island, Rum Cay and San Salvador. Plenty of Tuna, Wahoo, Grouper and Snapper.
