Imagine a place where the six seater Cessna drops you off right at the airport porch, where heavy traffic
is two bicyclers, a golf cart, and three cows, where noise pollution is the occasional braying of a donkey,
or the crowing of a time-impaired rooster, and where air pollution is the ocean breeze. Salt Cay, "the island
that time forgot," offers a true respite from the stresses of mainland life and from the commercialized
tourism of other Caribbean islands. Hyacinth Cottage, an 80-year old salt-raker house, is a delightful combination
of modern amenities and rustic charm for those wanting something more than the standard accommodations. The
two-bedroom house, which sleeps six comfortably, also has a spacious yard and a two story deck, the highest point
on the island. From it you can see the ocean, watch the sun rise and set, and, during the migrating season,
trace the journey of the whales as they pass around Salt Cay. Snorkeling and swimming on beautiful North Beach
is only a 5 minute golf cart ride away, and Salt Cay Divers awaits those who come to explore the pristine reefs.
