Saba is uniquely beautiful. Its cloud covered peak, Mount Scenery, sheer cliffs, and towering spires; its tropical rain forest, lush vegetation, quaint villages, and friendly people; its sunrises, sunsets, and mild weather in between. Easily accessible from Sint Maarten, either by airplane, on Windward Islands Airways (WINAIR), or by high-speed day boat, which comes over five days a week, and whether for a day, a week, or longer, Saba's cozy cottages and guesthouses, local restaurants, and the friendliest people you will ever meet, make this island a very welcome change-of-pace. There are no casinos, discos, or department stores; there are no traffic jams, pollution, or crime and... there are no beaches! You will be amazed, however, at how much there is to do and how quickly the time goes by: walking through the small, story-book villages, hiking in the tropical rain forest, enjoying the magnificent vistas of mountains, neighboring islands, and the Caribbean Sea; then there is always swimming, snorkeling, scuba diving, talking, relaxing, eating, reading a good book, "siesta-ing", and meeting new people. All at substantially less expense than other places; AND, at no extra charge: sunny days, cool breezes, beautiful sunsets, star-filled nights, peace and quiet; a lot to do or nothing to do -- your choice!
