Dive-site story
Located off the southwest coast within the Saba National Marine Park, Tent Reef features a diverse seascape of volcanic boulders, vibrant coral overhangs, and sandy channels. The reef is renowned as one of the island's premier night diving locations, where nocturnal predators emerge to hunt along the reef structure. Divers frequently encounter sea turtles resting beneath ledges alongside schools of reef fish hovering above the hard corals.
Extensive undercuts and volcanic overhangs sheltering sleeping turtles and nurse sharks
Expansive sandy patches inhabited by colonies of garden eels and foraging southern stingrays
Exceptional night diving opportunities with active hunting morays and hunting tarpon
