点评:Sea Saba was a wonderful experience! They were really responsive with several emails I sent asking questions and booking diving arrangements.
We were going to ferry over but the boat had mechanical issues and cancelled so we ended up booking a flight with Winair. Sea Saba helped modify our booking so we could get the third dive in and also had their driver Anthony pick us up from the airport to take us to the marina, which was amazing.
If you are on the fence about flying - Do it!! First, we took a 20 minute ferry from St Maarten to Anguilla and that was about as long as I wanted to be on a ferry in the Caribbean… the 1.5 hour ferry to Saba getting cancelled was a blessing in disguise. Not only was the 12 minute flight so much better than 1.5 hours, but the airport is on the opposite side of the island as The Bottom where the marina is at. This gave us the opportunity to actually see the island (we did not stay overnight), the volcano is amazing and very steep, tight switchbacks all the way up then all the way back down. The driver let us out at the Wayward side village and we got to have a coffee and apple turnover, recommended by Anthony. Had we ferried over we would have missed experiencing the beautiful island because the ferry ports at the marina where the dive boat is located.
We did extensive research on flying after our dives and due to the low elevation, short distance and time in the air it’s completely safe. However, we did buy DAN memberships to cover any unforeseen situations below or above water.
翻译:Sea Saba 的体验太棒了!我发了几封邮件询问问题,他们也非常热情地回复了,帮我预订了潜水安排。
我们本来打算坐渡轮过去,但船出了机械故障取消了,所以我们最终预订了 Winair 的航班。Sea Saba 帮我们修改了预订,这样我们就可以进行第三次潜水了,他们的司机 Anthony 还来机场接我们去码头,这真是太棒了。
如果你还在犹豫是否坐飞机——那就去坐吧!!首先,我们从圣马丁岛坐了20分钟的渡轮到安圭拉,这差不多就是我想在加勒比海坐渡轮的时间了……原本要坐1.5小时的渡轮去萨巴岛,结果被取消了,真是因祸得福。不仅12分钟的航程比1.5小时的航程好得多,而且机场和码头所在的 The Bottom 位于岛的另一边。这让我们有机会亲眼目睹这座岛屿(我们没有过夜)。火山令人叹为观止,而且非常陡峭,一路蜿蜒曲折,上坡下坡都非常陡峭。司机在Wayward旁边的村庄让我们下了车,我们吃了Anthony推荐的咖啡和苹果馅饼。如果我们坐渡轮过去,就会错过这座美丽的岛屿,因为渡轮停靠在潜水船所在的码头。
我们对潜水后乘飞机做了大量的研究,由于海拔低、飞行距离短、空中停留时间短,所以完全安全。不过,我们还是购买了DAN会员资格,以应对水下和水上的任何意外情况。
