After a quick orientation and safety briefing on the beach at the northern boundary of Club Med we will launch north to Green Cay. At Green Cay we stop, disembark and get close to the iguanas then explore the cliff and plunge pool for a few minutes or simply soak up the wonderful vista.
Next we race to Catto Cay (Bird Island) where we will slow idle around the shallows and peek at the Magnificent Frigate, Fish Hawks, Red-foot Booby or whatever creature that decides to make an appearance. If you have selected the "15-mile Circuit" you will then follow your guide through a barrier reef into Grahams Harbor where Eagle Ray and Shark sightings are common. You will then head back to Bonefish Bay (the beach at Club Med) for a total circuit of about 15 miles.
If you choose the "Full-Island Circuit" you will visit Green Cay (Iguana Island) and Catto Cay (Bird Island) just like the "15-mile Circuit" but instead of heading back to the beach at Club Med we will continue around to the Atlantic (east facing) side of San Salvador. On the east side of San Salvador which is rugged and mostly uninhabited we will pull into Pink Sand Beach cove to rest. On this beach we usually scour the pale pink sand for Sand Dollars and simply soak in the sights of absolutely unspoiled and untouched nature.
After Pink Sand Beach we head south for about 20min to the Lagoon (Pigeon Creek) where it is always calm and super quiet. In the Lagoon we will stop on a sandbar, lay with the starfish and swim with the turtles and sting rays that make this area home. Next we shoot out of the lagoon around the southeastern tip of San Salvador for an all out thrill ride complete with with big open water swells as we head west and calm shoreline as we hug the beach heading northward back to the beach at Club Med. All in all this adventure totals about 3-3.5 hours covering about 36 miles.
