Yacht Front David.Eps Visitor Information Saba National Marine Park PO Box 18, The Bottom Anchorage Saba Saba, Netherlands Antilles www.sabapark.org The Saba National Marine Park (SMP) was established in 1987 with the objective to preserve and manage Saba's marine resources. The SMP was not founded to repair a damaged environment but rather to ensure the continued quality of an extraordinary resource for the benefit and enjoyment of everyone in perpetuity. The SMP surrounds the entire island and extends from the high-water mark down to a depth of 60 metres (200 feet), including the seabed and overlying waters. The SMP is administered by the Saba Conservation Foundation, a not-for-profit organization with a mission to contribute to the development and preservation of Saba's natural and cultural heritage. The SMP raises revenue through visitor fees, souvenir sales and donations, and is one of the few self-sustaining marine parks in the world.

  • Plum Piece Evidence for Archaic Seasonal Occupation on Saba, Northern Lesser Antilles Around 3300 BP Corinne L
    Journal of Caribbean Archaeology Copyright 2003 ISSN 1524-4776 Plum Piece Evidence for Archaic Seasonal Occupation on Saba, Northern Lesser Antilles around 3300 BP Corinne L. Hofman Menno L.P. Hoogland Recent investigations on the island of Saba, northern Lesser Antilles, revealed evidence of preceramic occupation in the northwestern part of the island at an elevation of approxinately 400 m above sea level. The inland location of dense midden deposits in a tropical forest environment makes the Plum Piece site unique for studying the preceramic occupation of the Antilles, a period that is otherwise mainly known from coastal settings. The recovered artifacts and the radiocarbon dates support an attribution to the Archaic period of the preceramic Age. The nature of the tools and the restricted number of exploited food sources suggest a temporary, probably seasonal, occupation of the site for a unique activity. _____________________________________ Archaeological investigations on the island coastal exploitation in which shellfish of Saba, northern Lesser Antilles (Figure 1) predominates.

Title: “Better than we”: landscapes and materialities of race, class, and gender in pre- emancipation colonial Saba, Dutch Caribbean Issue Date: 2017-02-09 Page | 47 Chapter 4: Saba in the Documentary Record This chapter outlines the processes involved in documentary research, and outlines the colonial history of Saba, from first sightings by Europeans to the early twentieth century, with the abandonment of Middle Island and Palmetto Point. A significant proportion of the history recounted herein is derived from original archival and historical newspaper research by the author, which is indicated by references to archive locations and their indexes that do not include an adjoining secondary source reference. In particular, it focuses on the oral and documentary history concerning free and enslaved Sabans of African descent. This includes the first arrival of enslaved Africans to the island, the rise and fall of the plantation economy, the emergence of free Sabans of African descent, laws pertaining to the institution of slavery, emancipation as it occurred on Saba in 1863, and its aftermath. The sources and their history A wide variety of sources were employed throughout this research in several collections worldwide. The most important sources for seventeenth and eighteenth colonial documents have been the Calendar of State Papers through the British National Archives (herein abbreviated to the BNAr), and the Dutch National Archives in The Hague (herein abbreviated to DNAr).

Because of the continuous upkeep and restoration efforts by the SCF in the past decades, the island has become a renown hiking destination and attracts tourists from all over the world. They appreciate the island’s unspoiled nature, serenity and breathtaking vistas, as a haven away from the hustle and bustle of urban society. Hiking and other nature related activities, like birdwatching, are steadily inclining, but still have not reached their full potential. Consequently, Saba’s prosperity and economy, now and in the future, are highly depend on the conservation of its unique, but very fragile marine and terrestrial ecosystems. Nonetheless, recently the integrity of the trail network has been seriously compromised. There have been numerous development activities, with no regards to Saba’s cultural heritage and nature, giving us no choice, but to close certain trails. 1.

  • 1 Assessment of the Commercial Fishery of Saba Bank Wes Toller
    Assessment of the Commercial Fishery of Saba Bank Wes Toller and Shelley Lundvall Saba Conservation Foundation Saba, Netherlands Antilles February 29, 2008 Executive Summary The commercial fishery of Saba Bank, Netherlands Antilles, was assessed for six months from June 1 through November 30, 2007, by conducting port sampling interviews with Saban commercial fishermen to obtain information on fishing effort, gear usage, landings and species composition of catches. Results from our survey are compared to previous studies to provide an updated assessment of the Saba Bank commercial fishery. The fishery can be summarized as follows. A small fishing fleet of approximately ten vessels operates from Fort Bay, Saba Island, and conducts small-scale commercial fishing on Saba Bank. Saban commercial fishermen may participate in either or both of two distinct types of fisheries: a lobster trap fishery and a “redfish” trap fishery. The two trap fisheries account for almost all commercial landings while other fishing methods (e.g. hook & line) make only a minor contribution to total landings from Saba Bank. Specific patterns of effort, landings and catch composition are identified within each trap fishery. Lobster trap fishing is the more prevalent and economically significant Saba Bank fishery. Lobster catch rate is 0.84 lobster per trap-haul and 184 pounds per trip. Catch rates vary significantly with season. Projected annual lobster landings are 184,000 lbs (83.6 mt) with an ex- vessel value of US $1.3 million per year. The lobster trap fishery also harvests a diversity of “mixed fish” (shallow water reef fishes). Average catch rate of mixed fish is 0.5 pounds per trap- haul and 37.8 pounds per trip, with projected annual mixed fish landings of 37,700 pounds (17.1 mt) at an ex-vessel value of US $68,700 per year.

Title: “Better than we”: landscapes and materialities of race, class, and gender in pre- emancipation colonial Saba, Dutch Caribbean Issue Date: 2017-02-09 Page | 214 Chapter 6: Excavated non-Plantation Contexts This chapter will describe the sites across Saba that will be referenced throughout this work. The process of excavation will be described along with details of artifact compositions. Unless otherwise specified, all sites discussed below which range between SB 001 to SB 032 were originally surveyed by Jay Haviser (1985). Particular attention was paid to the ceramic assemblages regarding typologies and surface decoration, and to a lesser extent the glass assemblage, in the cases where this abounded relative to ceramics. SB 037: The Fort Bay ridge site Overview and Site Location The site SB 037 is located at the foot of Bunker Hill in the southwest of the island at approximately 17°37’07N and 63°15’04W, half way up the road between the Fort Bay Harbour and The Bottom. Its proximity to Parish Hill and Great Hill, two young volcanic domes, may have impacted its pre-Columbian occupation history through volcanic events. The vegetation at SB 037 consists mainly of grasses, the invasive Euphorbia tithymaloides, and “Maraun bush” (Croton flavens L.). The SB 037 site was a strategic settlement location throughout the Amerindian and colonial periods. Fort Bay, Ladder Bay, and Wells Bay are the only reliable anchorage points on Saba, aided in part by the sheltered position of the western waters around Saba from the northeast trade winds.
