Windwardside

From Wikitravel

Windwardside as seen from the road to Booby Hill

Windwardside is one of the four villages of Saba. It contains two of the main dive shops on the island (Sea Saba and Saba Divers) as well as a majority of the hotels and eateries. It also contains a lot of the shopping on Saba, and even some specialty shops such as Jobean's Hot Glass Studio which gives glass bead making workshops.

Windwardside is so aptly named because it faces the windward side of the island, giving it a nice breeze most of the time. Few (if any) places in Windwardside have air conditioning, but the constant breeze gives no reason for anyone to complain about it.

This serene mountain town overlooks the ocean and neighboring islands can be seen in the distance. Because of the wind, rain can come in suddenly and leave just as fast.

Windwardside is located along The Road between St. John's and Hell's Gate.
