Like skydivers, we jumped off the stern of the Caribbean Explorer II descending into one of Saba’s premier dive sites, Eye of the Needle. Hand over hand, we descended on a smart line from the boat to the mooring line reaching a stunning pinnacle in 95 feet of water. The Eye is covered with sponges, fan and whips and 6-8 foot reef sharks cruise in the surrounding swift, swirling current.
