Care agreement between Eye Care Optical Saba and ZJCN continues until the 31st of December, 2022
I am so, so grateful to read this as Lucy saved my eyesight (due to her early detection of my glaucoma). Even my eye surgeon in the U.S. says she deserves all the credit. Thanks to her expertise and quick action prescribing the correct medicine and frequently monitoring my eye pressures, I received no damage to my optical nerve. Having her here on island is invaluable to me. You cannot put a price on your vision and she is a true eye care professional deserving of respect. I am very grateful we are not losing her ❤

BOTH….suffered an epileptic seizure at the same time ? Very odd. Driver license should be revoked with a medical history of seizures.

We’ll see a lot more of these messages in the future, thanks to the new traffic ordinance. Who got the bright idea to increase the maximum speed on our roads by 50%?
Draw your own conclusions. Forcing the police to uphold the original speed limits on our roads would have been a must safer solution to avoid accidents.
The elections are coming …… Safe your life.

Town hall meetings about tourism: June 7th and 9th
First Of all……Tourism?!?!? Saba needs more then just-one-dive-shop! That is..if we want tourism to stay at a level we desire here…as a tourist diving/hiking destination. (We do have more then one trail…..Thank God!) Imagine we had only one grocery or one restaurant??????
The Government need to encourage this get some attention! And encourage this Avenue gets priority & encouragement to fill the other licenses on island! (Along with the island collecting more needed business tax dollars for Saba!)
While moving here to open and run a business, there were 3 dive companies. Bringing many a tourist to Saba. What the heck happened to one of our main industries here on island??????? Start with this thought, answers appreciated.

Yes! What hell happened? Haven’t been able to get back to my “heart home” these last few years. Which shop is left? Had a long time relationship with Saba Deep and I know what happened there but down to one?
Diving is a huge tourist generator and the waters around Saba are world class.

When you gonna make it back? Things are getting back to normal here pandemic wise!
Sea Saba sold last year…what a huge loss for the island..loosing Lynn & John! After the pandemic…where there was no diving for a long time…we down to only the one shop now.
We have a new hotel, so now we are more then ready to service more tourism, along with the Amazing Julianna’s & The Cottage Club & Queens Gardens Hotel. Along with the many Beautiful tourist Cottages Also renting on Island!

Yep!! It is a major Problem now here on Saba!
Well It Is Well-Known on Island….One shop is holding two of the licenses….Weird huh????
And the other….well they have never since purchasing Deep End Restaurant and Dive license…Use their dive license!! (Both are closed!?!?) The have a small boat and do some private diving….Not good enough!
I suggest if you don’t use it…… You loose it!
Tourism is in the hands of Our Government! This is an issue needing Much Attention Now that we have opened up again!!!!!!

Island Council Member Hemmie van Xanten resigned from WIPM party
As an outsider looking in…..if you resign from your party, then you should be gone altogether. You were elected as a representative of “that” party and its beliefs. Next election you can run as an independant and try your luck.

Did anyone see a report on the May 13th break-in in Windwardside at the cottage behind Brigadoon? If there hasn’t been a report, why not? The perpetuator left their cell phone after a hasty exit and the police have or had it.

Saba Tourism Master Plan process started
The focus should be on “Soft Tourism”. Marketing with targetgroups for diving, hiking, nature, relaxing etc.
Almost each and every country in the world has organisations for this category of tourism.
