Saba
has been a well kept secret for thousands of years, but word is getting
around. Saba was recently given the 2006 World's
Best Award by Travel and Leisure magazine. Travel and
Leisure named Saba the best island in the Caribbean, Bermuda, or
Bahamas. National
Geographic says, "Saba is known for its unparalleled
diving" and extols the unspoiled beauty of Saba's many hiking
trails.
Imagine a unique island in the Caribbean untrampled by time, where 50
tourists a week is considered very busy; unspoiled landscapes that
make you feel like an early explorer; some
of the best scuba diving in the world at over 27 different, untainted
diving locations
with diving possibilities that include seamounts, pinnacles, fringing
reefs, and true coral reefs; a place
where hiking and relaxing are considered
things to do; an
ideal climate, with temperatures normally between 75 and 82 degrees
Fahrenheit (24 and 28 degrees Celsius); giant elephant ears, cashew,
coconut, banana and mango trees and a dazzling array of colorful
hibiscus, oleander, orchids and bougainvillea that carpet this
5-square-mile (3 square kilometer) paradise.
The
moment you set foot on Saba, you walk back in time to a simpler life, to
natural beauty few have known, and to memorable adventures few have
taken. Welcome to Saba, "The Unspoiled Queen!" |
