| Horse Riding Half Moon Cay – Bahamas |
Half Moon Cay, also known as Little San Salvador, is one of the 700 islands that make up the Bahamas.
The island was purchased by Holland America in 1997, and development has only occurred on approximately 45 acres of the 2400 acre island. The main goal is to maintain as much habitat as possible for wildlife, especially waterfoul as the island is a significant nesting area.
