Small resort but super big hospitality. Rooms are simple but clean. 'Family' dining for meals. The diving is great - primarily muck diving. Guides are great with photographers - allowing plenty of time to take pictures. All dive sites were excellent. Water clarity was super. Always small groups for each dive.

Anguilla - Shoal Bay Scuba

Have been going to Anguilla for 5+ years. The beaches are superb, the dining is great and the Island pace is very low key. Diving in Anguilla is not the greatest however there are several (5) wrecks for exploring. My favorite dive spot is Little Bay - it is a shallow dive but plenty of marine life. The Bay is protected and as a result you see a lot of young fish - a nursery per se. I have only dived in April/May - conditions are mostly relaxed, little to no currents and mostly no swells. Water temperature is typically 82. Typical marine life for the Caribbean - Angels, lobsters, crabs, eels, rays, bleenies, crayfish, turtles, octopus, ...and past few years, lionfish. Several sites have nice soft and hard corals. Matthew (dive operator) and his crew at Shoal Bay Scuba are super helpful. We discovered Anguilla when we took a day trip from St Martin about 7 years ago. It is a 40 minute ferry ride between the Islands. Ferries leave early enough that you could stay in St Martin and do a double tank dive in Anguilla and have some time to explore the Island.

Sea Saba Dive Center

Tiny Island of Saba is great for diving. Easy to get to Saba from St Martin. Have done day trips (via plane) while staying in St Martin. Dived with both Sea Saba Dive Center and Saba Deep - both are well organized and a pleasure to dive with. Diving is mostly known for pelagics. A waters around Saba are a Marine Park. Lots of pinnacles. I have always missed the dives to the muck site. The island has volcanic origins - some 'hot spots' in the sands are always neat. Only time we stayed overnight in Saba we stayed at Queens Garden. Super place. Views are delightful between the mountain peaks and out to the sea - especially when sitting in the hot tub at night with a full moon. There are no beaches on the Island. Hiking to the top of the highest peak (2900 feet) is quite a work out. Island is small - 5 sq mi.
