"The Bottoms" is one of the four villages of Saba and is its capital. The other villages are Fort Bay, Winwardside, and Hells' Gate. Most of the 1200 full-time residents of the island go by their first name only, and everyone knows everybody! This was very evident as we drove around the island.

Saba is home to the Saba University School of Medicine, where students from around the world spend their first two years of medical school. What a beautiful setting for a medical school!
