Sea Saba In A New Light

Hot News From Hotlanta

Trick or Treat?

Atlanta, GA - Representing Saba's interests, "renaissance women" Lynn Costenaro of Sea Saba and Beth Jansen of Dive Saba Travel attended the 4th annual Action Sports and Adventure Travel Expo that was held at the Cobb Galleria Convention Center in Atlanta on October 9 and 10. In addition to being able to soon see Saba in a whole new light, the big news coming out of Atlanta this year is the start of Delta's direct non-stop air service from Atlanta to St. Maarten on December 15. Both Lynn and Beth agree that this is an important milestone that will yield  more options for travel to Saba and will benefit not only those from the Atlanta area but those making connections via Atlanta. With an 11:00 AM departure from Atlanta, this flight will offer convenient connections to Saba via Winair on a daily basis. See our new travel page, for more information on getting here.

Over coffee on Sunday morning (apparently after a late night on Saturday), Lynn and Beth were pleasantly surprised to see Saba featured on the front page of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Travel section. In an article entitled "Ideal Isles", staff writer David Swanson rated Saba as "Best Small Island" beating out other formidable foes such as Virgin Gorda, Culebra, St. John, Terre des Haut and Bequia. Naturally, we agree with his assessment and concur -- no beaches, no casinos, no full scale resorts, and no apologies about any of it.

Like most things, timing is everything and with Delta's new service and the above article, Lynn and Beth's promotion of Saba as the Caribbean's  unique tourism destination in an important southeastern market couldn't have come at a better time.

Happy Anniversary, Beth...
