At 200,000 euros per week, a Saba charter delivers a full superyacht experience alongside one of the Caribbean’s most exceptional and entirely uncommercialized diving destinations. Saba’s Unspoiled Queen reputation is well-earned. The island has no beaches, no cruise ship terminal and no resort hotel of any consequence. What it does have is the Saba Marine Park, protecting an underwater environment where visibility regularly exceeds 30 metres and large pelagics are common.nnTwenty-three yachts across the Caribbean fleet meet this price point, offering the widest selection in this round-up. Vessels range from 48 to 58 metres with professional crews of eight to ten, dive operations, beach clubs and comprehensive watersports inventories. At this level, the fleet divides between traditional displacement motor yachts built for long-range comfort and more performance-oriented vessels that reach Saba from St Maarten in under 40 minutes.nnThe 200,000 euro weekly rate covers vessel hire and crew. An Advance Provisioning Allowance of approximately 60,000 euros covers fuel for the inter-island circuit, all provisioning, port fees and Saba Marine Park dive permits. Caribbean season from December through April is when conditions at Fort Bay are most reliable and the trade winds provide consistent cooling for on-deck dining.nnSaba is reached from Simpson Bay or Marigot in St Maarten in 40 to 60 minutes by motor yacht. Fort Bay provides the primary anchorage on the southwest coast, well-protected in the prevailing trades with adequate holding for yachts to 60 metres. Wells Bay to the north gives an alternative position and access to the island’s rugged northern cliffs. Diamond Rock, the Pinnacles and Tent Reef are all within easy reach of Fort Bay by tender. Saba Bank, 5 kilometres southwest, is a separate day’s programme. The circuit continues to Sint Eustatius, Anguilla and St Barths.
