The Hideaway If you want to try some classic Caribbean food, there is probably no better place than the Hideaway. Here you can taste the delicious, freshly caught Saba Lobster, fish fritters, jerk chicken or a variety of other tasty dishes. Alternatively you can have a Lionfish or Saba Lobster sandwich whilst taking a drink at its well-stocked bar. Here a variety of events take place such as DJ Friday, Taco Tuesday and games nights so is worth stopping by to see what is going on. © sabatourism.com Climb the Steps from Ladder Bay to the Bottom Up until just a few decades ago, everything that came ashore on Saba had to be hauled up the 800 steep steps from Ladder Bay to The Bottom. Visitors today often make the 90 minute climb in order to imagine what life must have been like on the island not too long ago. Fortunately today there is a pier at Fort Bay, making life easier for the islanders.

Today it has a unique collection of prints, paintings, carvings, sculptures as well as silk screenings, cards and sketches, all created by Caribbean artists. As well as being able to buy one of these artworks, there are other interesting items in the gallery’s Everyt’ings Gift Shop. © sabatourism.com
