Dive-site story
Situated along the sheltered western flank of Saba within the protected national marine park, Tedran features a sloping reef structured by spur-and-groove coral formations separated by white sand chutes. Volcanic boulders encrusted with large barrel sponges, sea plumes, and plate corals dominate the seascape. Divers drifting along the outer contour frequently encounter pelagic visitors cruising in from open water alongside resident reef species.
