The Saba Rock Resort is an exotic island retreat. It lies between Prickly Pear Island and the Bitter End. The islet of Saba rock was turned into a resort by diving instructor Burt Kilbrides. The resort is accessible only by charter yacht. The Resort offers launch service which picks up passengers from the North Sound if requested. It has a jetty that can accommodate the ferry traffic and a few charter yachts. You can tie your dinghy here and go explore the island.
