OK, you've been hearing about Saba for a long time and you're ready to book the dive package. You want the best price, right? Well, sort of...you want the best price and the best quality for this trip you've been waiting to take. Before I tell you specifics about dive shops, I want to explain a few things about diving Saba. Unlike say Cayman where there's a difference of diving East End or 7-mile beach, Saba is only 5-square miles with most dive sites within 15 minutes of the harbor. The one harbor is utilized by all three dive shops. Dive prices are within $5/day--but, you should always make sure the package quote includes transfers as this is a $20/day value. All hotels are a 10-20 minute taxi ride to get to the diving. So, the basics are the same. However, each of the 3 dive shops definitely have a different style and cater to different markets.

Sea Saba
I have to say my loyalty lies with Sea Saba because John taught me and my husband to dive in 1993. Since then, John and Lynn have continued to maintain the excellent reputation with new and return customers. Even though they have the largest boats on the island, they continue to stand by their word of no compromises and no crowds. Sea Dragon and Giant Stride are 40' Delta dive boats but Sea Saba only puts a maximum of 10 divers on these large diesel-powered boats. Check out their comprehensive website for information from site descriptions to crew profiles. Best nitrox prices at only $59/week unlimited. Their workshop is located at the Fort Bay harbor facility but Sea Saba's office and retail location are in the center of Windwardside--just below YIIK restaurant--offering A-1 service from making dinner reservations to taking a dive site request--oh, almost forgot, great clothing, too! New for 2003, Sea Saba has specialty "kids sizes" for your junior divers. See their website for full details and advice on how this can work for your family. For you non-kids types, don't worry, your diving won't be compromised!
Saba Deep
Mike Myers has been running Saba Deep for over 15 years. Downsizing the last few years, "Big Mike" is the sole employee. When busier he will run one boat and Mike Myers another. Saba Deep has 3 gasoline-powered boats: Mystery and Magic @ 22' and MTwo at 26'. One dive instructor per boat runs 3 dives per day. Nitrox available upon request @ $15/tank. In Two Deep (just above) serves great lunches and has a boutique as well. Ft. Bay location only.

Saba Divers
Saba Divers is the newest dive shop on the island (Feb 2000). Wolfgang and Barbara Tooten operate the German-run hotel, bar, restaurant and dive shop. Their crew take divers on either Air One their 14' Zodiac inflatable with outboards or Big Blue 32' diesel-powered vessel. Saba Divers has a partial-pressure nitrox system offering nitrox @ $15/tank. Their office and retail facility are in the same area as the hotel, bar and restaurant. New in 2002, they have a Ft. Bay facility.
