🤿 The diving

Saba's diving centers on volcanic offshore pinnacles and seamounts rising from the deep to within about 27m (90ft) of the surface, encrusted in sponges, gorgonian sea fans and black coral with groupers, jacks, sharks and turtles. The Saba National Marine Park protects roughly 30 named sites, including signature pinnacles like Third Encounter's 'The Needle' and Diamond Rock, where walls plunge to 32m (105ft).
