Dive the Caribbean's "Unspoiled Queen" with a fun group of no more than sixteen LGBTQ+ divers. Saba is a small, LGBTQ-welcoming Dutch Caribbean island renowned for its healthy marine environment and exciting pinnacle dives.
You'll stay in Juliana's Hotel, and your trip leader for the week, Robert Walden, will show you the best of everything this charming island has to offer. Breakfast daily along with five lunches and six dinners are included in your package.
You'll get thirteen dives with the excellent and professional Sea Saba dive shop; two to three dives a day for five days. The pinnacles offshore act as beacons for fish, and the topside of the island offers a lush rainforest atop Mt. Scenery, where you can spend an afternoon hiking.
