Saba Divers - Boat Maintenance - September 2015

Our dive boat Big Blue came out of the water in September for maintenance and a make-over. This is some footage of the work done and the end result :)

Saba - Scouts Place

Das ausgesprochen schöne und sehr familiäre Hotel Scouts Place mit der dazugehörigen Tauchbasis Saba Divers ist so etwas wie ein kleiner Liebling unserer Firma. Hier fühlt man sich einfach wohl! Durch die zentrale Lage im Ort Windwardside kann man schnell und unkompliziert zum Supermarkt, ins Restaurant oder zu einer der Abendveranstaltungen im Dorf. Der Tauchablauf der Tauchbasis Saba Divers ist vorbildlich organisiert, die Tauchplätze sind richtig klasse und die Insel Saba selbst versprüht eine sehr angenehme Atmosphäre.

Unbedingt empfehlenswert!

This is an edit I put together of my favorite shots from our week on the little volcanic Caribbean island of Saba. Big thanks to Sea Saba for an amazing week of scuba diving. Underwater shots were taken with GoPro Hero 4 silver in 2.7K 60fps. Aerial shots were done with DJI Mavic Pro. Panasonic GH5 1080p 180fps for slow motion shots.

Saba's Needle at Third Encounter

Saba is famous for its deep water pinnacle and seamount dives. The Needle at Third Encounter is considered by many to be one of the best dive sites in the Caribbean. This video shot by Tom Greenway on a dive with Sea Saba.

Saba Dive SItes - No.2 Third Encounter - Dutch Caribbean

Mooring Depth: 95 feet (130m)
Maximum Depth: 110 feet (35m)

Voted “One of the 10 Best Dive Sites” by Sport Diver magazine in July 2008, the award winning color photo by Mauricio Handler can be purchased exclusively at Sea Saba. Located at the eastern end of the horseshoe shaped seamount, this dive can be conducted completely on top of the plateau or with a short trip out into the deep blue to the tip of the Eye of the Needle that rises majestically up from the deep to within 90 feet of the surface. It's common to encounter Caribbean Reef Sharks and Yellowtail Snappers along the edge of the outcrops where the plankton rich water reaches the plateau and schools of shallow reef fish abound. Keep your eyes peeled for our friendly Nassau Grouper “Charlie” as you venture out to The Needle which you will find surrounded by schools of Creole Wrasse and Creole Fish. On the way back to the plateau, explore the seamount for sleeping Nurse Sharks. Be sure to look out into the blue as you make your ascent; more Manta Rays have delighted divers on their safety stop more than once.

Saba Dive Sites - No.6 Diamond Rock - Dutch Caribbean

Mooring Depth: 80 feet (24m)
Maximum Depth: 80 feet (24m)

Saba's famous landmark sits on a flat, sandy bottom at 80 feet. Circumnavigation near the bottom provides excellent opportunities to see Southern Stingrays and Furry Sea Cucumbers in the sand. A trip through the canyon on the northeast side allows you to multi-level this dive with an upward spiral while watching for sharks, schools of Horse Eye Jacks and marveling at the fish life this jewel attracts. Regular sightings of Unicorn Filefish, Chain Moray Eels, Octopus and Juvenile Angelfish make this dive spot a true gem!

Jaunt to Saba

My friend, Nan, and I went down to Saba last year (2/2008) for my birthday! She set up a free flight via some buddy passes on USAir, and away we went. We stayed at Scout's on Saba, and had some great dives thru their dive shop.

Most of these shots are from the flight, around the island, and on the dive boat. The first road was completed only a few decades ago, given the steepness of the topography. Prior to the road's opening,all the goods were placed on pack mules and carried up from the docks via a 300 step staircase on the Northwest shore. The first car on the island had to be carried up from the docks and assembled at the top of the cliffs. The runway is also an adventure, being one of the world's shortest. Only slightly longer than an air craft carrier, the runaway is guarded on 3 sides by tremendous rocky cliffs buffeted by the heavy surf that always assails the windward side of the island. Only pilots qualified to fly STAL planes are authorized to land. STAL is aviator lingo for Short Take Off and Landing and not a little bit ironic, since you certainly don't wish to stall during approach or take off.

Five square miles in area, there are three climates, arid, temperate, and rain forest, as you climb up towards the summit of the island, a 3000' volcano cone.

Originally settled by the Scots, one can only imagine the mindset of the original settlers. Look at all these wonderful flat islands all about the Caribbean! Each has fresh water, arable land, sandy beaches, and lovely weather. Lo! What's that? A dark foreboding rock 3000' tall, with cliffs all around, one well at the bottom of a steep mile long trail, no beaches, crashing waves, grey clouds, and rain that goes sideways! Let's live there!

Yes, no doubt, it was yet another brilliant idea hatched after a binge of grog drinking.

These days, there are roads, a medical school that specializes in hyperbaric medicine, which I have personally benefitted from having been bent on Saba, internet, good lodging, quiet peaceful environment, and zero crime. The only drawback is that it is NOT a party island, and there is a rather high cost of living with very few jobs on the island. But Sabans are travelers, accustomed to earning their living on the high seas, trading around the world.

Scuba Diving trip to the enchanted Island of SABA with it's European Charm - Diving with Sea Saba & Squba Holidays

Saba is known as the “Unspoiled Queen of the Caribbean”!

SABA island's windward-side offered a completely different underwater topography with often-times superior visibility and different species of marine life than commonly found in other parts of the Caribbean

Scuba Diving in Saba - The Unspoiled Queen of the Caribbean

The tiny island of Saba is home to some of the most pristine and healthy reefs in the Caribbean. The dramatic underwater landscape, vivid colors and rich marine life will impress even the experienced divers.

Saba Dive Sites - No.5 Shark Shoals - Dutch Caribbean

Mooring Depth: 40 feet (12m)
Maximum Depth: 80 feet (24m)

So named because of the hot water springs coming through vents in the sea floor, this dive site is proof positive that Saba's volcano is merely in between periods of eruption, not extinct. Pick a dive here! Head seaward from the mooring and then south over a series of coral heads separated by a sandy bottom. A huge anchor (one of several at this dive site) is a good point to turn inshore and back to the mooring. Alternatively, head seaward and then north for a shallower dive among the coral encrusted boulders before heading back to the mooring. Check out the extremely friendly resident Nurse Shark, Stingrays, Garden Eels hiding in the sand and Turtles grazing in the seagrass next to Flying Gunards.  A favorite site for night dives, crustaceans can always be spotted out dancing in front of their lairs. Other night dive highlights are octopus, sharks on the hunt and Ostracods, tiny crustaceans which create a one of a kind bio-luminescence display when they are mating.
