Mountainous, lush, quiet, friendly. Great diving, no beaches. Interesting landing and takeoff - very sporting!!!

Went there 10 years ago by boat from St.Martin. Steep cliffs--great walk. Suppose to have good diving

It is a beautiful unspoiled place. no beaches but a lot of lush nature.
Look at this travelogue link for a great description of the place:

A really neat place to visit. Very unique and different. No beach to speak of. Quaint businesses, restaurants and accommodations. Rainforest, friendly people. Though a number of years ago I really enjoyed the island. Saba spice is a local libation that you have just got to try if you go.
