Visit Saba in October
If you are thinking of visiting Saba but are not quite
sure when you should do so, consider the month of
October. During this entire month, there will be many
opportunities for you to combine your vacation
with exciting and educational environmental
awareness activities organized by Saba’s Sea & Learn
Foundation, which has dedicated this entire month
to learning. There will be plenty to do both day and
night. It’s fun; it’s free; and it’s for everyone!
Monitor www.seaandlearn.org for this years’ guest
scientists, planned activities and field projects and
follow them on Facebook at:
facebook.com/seaandlearn/
In October, Dr Joe Pawlik
will be focusing on
Caribbean sponges. Join
him on a guided dive in
Saba’s waters to survey the
sponge biodiversity, learn
how a sponge filter-feeds,
and learn techniques for
aging these interesting,
sometimes taken for
granted, organisms!
