Welcome to “The Land of Lakes & Discovery”
San Salvador is small in size—only about 12 miles long and 5 miles wide—but it holds outsized beauty, history, and possibilities. Known also by its historic name Watling’s Island, San Salvador is celebrated as one of the likely first landfalls of Christopher Columbus in 1492.
Life here is quiet, authentic, and deeply connected to nature. Inland saltwater lakes, pristine beaches, reefs, and historical landmarks offer a lifestyle of exploration, serenity, and coastal charm.
