SABA WRECK
Curaçao
Saba Wreck or Tugboat Saba is interesting for both divers and snorkelers. The wreck is situated at a depth of only 12 meters and is fully covered with vegetation. The wheelhouse has become detached over the years and lies now next to the wreck. Not only the Saba but the whole reef is beautifully covered with sponges and corals. Morays, doctor's fish, glass fish and parrot fish are permanent residents.
