Highlights of San Salvador Island
1. Great Lake National Park
San Salvador's Great Lake stretches through most of the island and connects the major settlements. The park protects the lake and surrounding mangroves ecosystem, both critical to the preservation of the endangered San Salvador Rock iguana and several bird species.
2. Standing On A Mountaintop
San Salvador's unique landscape of inland saltwater lakes and rolling hills is unlikely any other in The Bahamas. The island is actually the exposed peak of a 15,000ft mountain that rises from the ocean floor
3. Watling's Blue Hole
This inland blue hole is found on southwestern San Salvador. While most inland blue holes are a combination of salt and freshwater, Watling's Blue Hole is entirely saltwater. Evidently, there must be an underground connection to the ocean.
