Netherlands Antilles: Saba, St. Eustatius and St. Maarten/St. Martin
Netherlands Antilles: Saba, St. Eustatius and St. Maarten/St. Martin
The Dutch Caribbean islands of Saba, St. Eustatius and St. Maarten each have a very different character. On St. Maarten you can enjoy sun-baked, sandy beaches. On Saba one can follow the trail to the top of a dormant volcano, 877 m. high Mt. Scenery, covered by a magical cloud forest. St. Eustatius, finally, offers peace and quiet, and a rich history.

’Adam & Eve.’
This giant Kapok tree (left, with buttressed roots) stands on the bottom of the 300 meter deep crater of The Quill, St.Eustatius’ dormant volcano. Because it is intertwined with a Ficus species (right) it is locally referred to as the Adam & Eve tree.
