Because the sea provides ample cooling for the steam cycle, and there are no large rivers or lakes available in a small country.

Why do wind turbines only have three arms and not many as in say a jet engine turbine Also why can't they be horizontal like the wind speed generators at airfields?

Yes, There are wind turbines with more than three blades... Basically that would only apply for the turbines which are not commercial like the turbines which are installed at home etc. and there are also wind turbines with horizontal axis, and again that would not apply to commercial wind farm. Usually Wind Turbines are BIG in size and mostly used to Generate Commercial Electricity so installing a Turbine with more than 3 turbines is not a viable thing.
