If you are looking for a tiny Caribbean island where the food is fresh, the ingredients are local and the meals are tasty, take a trip to Saba. Saba’s food scene is rivalled only by its diving and hiking and even if you come for one of the three, it makes sense to add in the other two for a wholesome Dutch Caribbean experience.
At just five square miles, the island of Saba is one of the most unique islands in the world and the smallest territory in the Netherlands. Most of the island consists of the Mount Scenery Volcano, which reaches up to 2,910 feet into the air. This attribute alone makes it a must-see island because it sounds like something you can only see on a movie. Visitors who make the trek to Saba are in awe of the beautiful mountain, the surrounding landscapes, and the inspiring island life of the people who live there.
