Saba


This superb gift shop showcases the work of Saban artists and craftspeople in a cute cottage. Many items are made from local plants and natural products (such as Saba Spice shampoo), and there's also unique jewelry made from seeds, volcanic sand or lionfish fins along with hand-forged knives.

A separate room is dedicated to Saba lace masterpieces; watch them being created by the Saba Lace Ladies on Thursday afternoons.
