Columbus in 1492 said that this island was the mot beautiful island in the world. Its name was given though by a seafarer who thought it took him too long to pass this island when he was sailing by.

The first inhabitants set up cotton plantations and some others were raising cattle and sheep. After the abolition of slavery, in 1834, the plantations collapsed. The names of the towns were taken from the masters who owned the plantations.

The island offers beautiful beaches, such the Cape Santa Maria Beach which is one of the best beaches in the world! Hire our Long Island charter boats to get the most out of your vacations!
