Hell’s Gate, Saba – There are many extraordinary places around the world you have never even heard about.

Saba may be one of those places, but luckily, you can find all you need to know about the Caribbean emerald in this guide.

The Caribbean island is officially a public body of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, and is often referred to as “The Unspoiled Queen.”

The small bit of land is just a quick 15-minute plane ride away from popular Caribbean destination Saint Marin. Saba is largely made up of a potentially active volcano named Mt. Scenery, the island’s tallest point at 2, 910 feet (887 meters). It’s last eruption came in 1640.

Although that may sound intimidating, visiting Saba is a must for any and all adventures. The hiking and diving are superb, and the uniqueness of it all should only be experienced firsthand.
