Saba Dive Sites - No.27 Hole in the Corner - Dutch Caribbean
Mooring Depth: 40 feet (12m)
Maximum Depth: 85 feet (26m)
A series of large coral encrusted boulders lead to a sand bottom at 75 feet where a variety of hard and soft coral structures are the background for the schools of Blue Tang and Chubs that inhabitant this dive site. After looking for the Soft Coral-dwelling Bearded Fireworm, alleviate the eyestrain by taking a peek into the blue for the occasional Spotted Eagle Ray. Near the end of the dive have a careful look at the majestic Elkhorn Coral and the creatures living there like the Elkhorn Coral Crab and Roughhead Blennies.

No weird creatures here. Just one of the most beautiful overall sites on Saba.
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.

Nice tour of the reef. See if you can spot the 100+ year old anchor!
Saba DIve Sites - No.14 Ladder Labyrinth - Dutch Caribbean
Mooring Depth: 40 feet (12m)
Maximum Depth: 80 feet (24m)
The labyrinth of 10 foot coral and rock ridges just seaward of the mooring provide numerous nooks and crannies for shrimp, crab and lobsters while making it clear how this site was named. Heading east the labyrinth gives way to a more organized system of lava flows and sand chutes. Look for healthy populations of Filefish, Chromis and Schoolmasters. Don't overlook the many sandy alleyways that offer a close-up look at Yellowhead Jawfish, Pikeblennies or Lancer Dragonets. When returning to the mooring line, warm your hands in the hot sulphur-colored sand--evidence of the active status of the volcano that is Saba. Enjoy some time with Tarpons while you do your safety stop!

Saba DIve SItes - No.18 Tedran Wall - Dutch Caribbean
Mooring Depth: 70 feet (22m)
Maximum Depth: 110 feet (35m)
A series of coral outcrops at the edge of a sandy slope and a vertical drop-off provide a varied multi-level wall dive. Head either north or south along the wall and then return to the mooring over the tops of the coral outcrops at 60 to 80 feet. Look for several big, old anchors in the coral. Different blennies hide in the cracks and crevices of the wall along with Bar Jacks swimming in tandem with large Southern Stingrays in the sand. We usually spot a school of Boga around here and there is always a good chance of some pelagic passing by in the blue water!

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!
