Why is Saba known as the Unspoiled Queen of the Caribbean?
Saba is one of the few islands in the Caribbean that has not been spoiled by the mass tourism. You won't find big cities, traffic, resorts, or casinos. What you will discover is a very laid back environment with old world West Indies charm alongside modern facilities, such as island wide Wi-Fi.
The locals are quite serious about preserving their environment, and delight in visitors who are appreciative of their beautiful, unspoiled island home. If you're dreaming of the "typical" Caribbean beach paradise, this is NOT the destination. Saba rises steeply from the Caribbean Sea, and from every direction are glorious cliff views of the ocean, along with small bays, coves and tide pools filled with rocky pebbles.
What the island does offer is some of the best diving, snorkeling, hiking, lush mountain forests, and nature walks in the region. The entire island is circled by the Saba National Marine Park, which is known throughout the diving world as one of the best pristine spots to explore offshore reefs, walls and pinnacles.
