On your journey, start at the dual-nation island of Dutch St. Maarten and French St. Martin. From there, you can easily hop on ferries that whisk you to fabulous nearby destinations.
Take a note from traveler Malinda Hassell, director of tourism for Saba, who highlights the fantastic opportunity to collect up to five passport stamps while enjoying the stunning views.
