Some scholars believe that San Salvador Bahamas was the first stop for Columbus in 1492, thought others dispute it. Either way, San Salvador Bahamas has a number of attractions for tourists looking to escape the modern world and sink into the soft white sands of a quiet Bahamas island. San Salvador Bahamas is one of the eastern-most islands in the Bahamas, located near Long Island and Rum Cay.

To reach San Salvador you can schedule boat passages or take a flight to San Salvador. A flight to San Salvador can be booked from Miami, Nassau, or sometimes even New York during the busy winter season. If you don't want to take a flight to San Salvador, you do have the option of traveling by boat from Nassau, but the trip is 12 hours and not by any means a luxury cruise service. A flight to San Salvador is largely the more popular choice.
