Long Island Breeze Resort Salt Pond, Long Island, The Bahamas The Long Island Breeze Resort opened in 2008 and is ideally situated in Salt Pond, a community that could be described as being ‘at the Centre of Long Island’. The two main supermarkets are located in Salt pond along with a service station, boat refueling dock and a number of other businesses including real estate, hairdressers and boat chandlers. Adjacent to Long Island Breeze is the dock where the weekly mail boat arrives carrying most of the essential supplies for the island. Cruising around the islands of the Bahamas is a hugely popular pastime among the American boating community, the period between January and June of each year being particularly busy with boats on the cruising circuit. Until Long Island Breeze opened the most southerly point with facilities for food resupply, fueling, laundry, showers and Internet was Georgetown at the southern tip of the Exuma chain. Long Island Breeze was designed with the intention of extending the established cruising route and has a solid reputation among the cruising fraternity with the 201213 season seeing a substantial increase in the numbers of visiting boats. A 50’ floating dock system has recently been added.
