萨巴岛东海岸的堡湾港是进入萨巴的唯一港口。该港口在1972年与很多码头建立友好关系，从而使大型船舶得以通关，现有的小码头不方便对接。自那时以来，堡湾港的基础设施得以改善。

Saba's Port Access to Saba from the sea is on the south east shore of the island at Saba's only port Fort Bay Harbor. The port was made more user friendly back in 1972 with the completion of the Captain Leo Chance Pier. Thus allowing larger vessels that the existing small pier couldn't facilitate to dock. Since then the Fort Bay has expanded and the facilities have improved dramatically.

The Port is the busiest place on the island as it is used by Local Fishermen, Dive Operators, Ferry Services and Shipping companies alike. Practically all of Saba's goods move through here so delivery day can be quite hectic! You're always guaranteed to hear the islands most colorful language on a busy day... You'll find the Harbor Office, Customs, Saba Marine Park, Gas Station (the only one on the island!), Three Dive shops, Two restaurants and the Island's Electricity generators at the Fort, generators that not only power the entire island, but add a soundtrack to the melee that heightens its energy (and acts as censor for some of that aforementioned "colorful language").

Ferry Services
Sailing to Saba is an opportunity not to be missed. As she looms ever closer upon the horizon you'll be distracted from her silhouette by nature, keen eyes will be rewarded by the sight of brown booby birds chasing flying fish, sprightly dolphins and the luckiest of voyager may even spy a breaching whale...

Two regular Ferry Services use the Port; the Dawn II Ferry which is based on Saba and The Edge Ferry run by Aquamania which is based on St. Maarten. Check in times from St. Maarten are 4.00 pm from Dock Maarten Marina, Great Bay, Philipsburg, for the Dawn & 8.00 am at Pelican Marina for the Edge. The services do not run daily and are subject to change/weather conditions (as all travel is to Saba). Check out their web sites in our related links to get accurate up to date schedule information.
