Greer Gut: Saba coral reef with sand channels and ledges.
Greer Gut is a windward-side Saba boat dive built around a true coral reef shaped like a seahorse and broken into sand channels, flats, and ledges. It is a weather-sensitive site that rewards calm-day planning, current awareness, and a relaxed route through hard-coral scenery, white sand, and barrel sponges. When conditions line up, it feels bright and open, but it still deserves respect as a site that can tighten quickly with the wind.
