Saba’s eco-tourism product has been recognised as one of the best in the world by the Green Destinations Award program.
The island, which is also known as “The Unspoiled Queen”, was maintained its designation as a the Silver Quality destination after an audit of 100 sustainability criteria and indicators such as nature and heritage conservation, waste management, energy and climate.
Saba was among the top 100 destinations in 2017 and 2017.
“The award is also a recognition for the destinations’ efforts to sustain the attractiveness of its tourism in the future. Not only visible, tangible aspects are measured, such as natural heritage, but also policy and management plans that take sustainable development principles into account,” the Public Entity Saba said.
Director of Tourism Malinda Hassell said: “We are honoured that Saba has maintained its Silver status and we look forward to apply the recommendations also to stimulate partners to include and promote good environmental practices as it’s a collective effort and continue to demonstrate our environmental efforts as the Unspoiled Queen of the Caribbean.”
The Award will be officially presented to Saba on September 27, 2022.
