Saba is in the Netherlands Antilles in the Caribbean by St. Maarten and St. Eustatius islands. As it was formed from volcanic activity - the volcano is dormant - Saba offers both shallow and truly deep diving. Winter in the Caribbean is December to April with water around 79F. Summer water reaches 85F although it can increase plankton growth slightly. The hurricane season is September through November. |

We have been fortunate to dive with Saba Deep Dive Centre many times over the past years and are planning a dive trip with Mike Myers of Saba Deep next year I have nothing but fantastic comments to make both about diving Saba and Saba Deep Dive Centre. Saba Deep employs only highly qualified divers and I have always felt safe, confident and well taken care of the moment I arrive at the dive centre. Saba has one of the most spectacular marine reserves to be found. We have experienced every type of tropical fish and always sight sea turtles, sharks, barracuda, etc, etc. Visibility is excellent. Dive sites? My ultimate favourite is Diamond Rock - glutted with every variety of fish. One dive that sticks out in my mind was, I believe, Twilight Zone, (remarkable) with a stop at Eye of the Needle. Glorious. Other dive sits to remember - Outer Limits, Core Gut, Man O'War Shoals, Ladder Labyrinth, Tent Reef and Tent Wall, Babylon... If you've never been to Saba - GO !! It is an absolutely charming island and a diver's paradise. |
