About Man O War Shoal
Man O War Shoal is a twin-pinnacle reef in Saba Marine Park, reached by boat from the island's west side. The site works best as a multi-level figure-eight dive, starting around the base and spiraling upward between the peaks. Its encrusted rock, black coral, schooling reef fish, and frequent shark encounters make it one of Saba's signature dives.
