Rising straight up from the abyssal depths, this rugged, volcanic island is like a piece of the Pacific teleported to the Caribbean. With a quaint, European charm above the waterline and pristine diving below, Saba calls itself “The Unspoiled Queen.” Healthy reefs with incredible visibility and marine life-covered pinnacles are all protected by Saba Marine Park.

On land, the Saba Conservation Foundation protects the unspoiled wilderness. As you’d expect from a volcanic island, underwater structures and seamounts offer amazing views.

Complemented by shallow patch reefs, Saba has a nice mix of dives ranging from exhilarating drifts over “bottomless” drop-offs to mellow dives on sites full of juvenile fish and interesting invertebrates.

Conservation Efforts

Saba is surrounded by waters protected by the Saba National Marine Park. The Saba Marine Park surrounds the entire island to a depth of 200 feet. This park was established to preserve and manage Saba’s marine resources. It is one of the few self-sustaining marine parks and has a system of mooring buoys for boats to prevent damage to the reefs. Visitors pay $3 per dive to help preserve the marine park and protect Saba’s beautiful underwater world.
