  • Episode 41: The Unspoiled Queen of the Caribbean with Lynn Costenaro
    This week's episode takes us to Saba, a small island in the Caribbean that makes up for what it lacks in land mass with abundant biodiversity both above and below the water. This beach-less island turns out to be an unexpected crown-jewel of the Caribbean! This is what Lynn Costenaro fell in love with when she moved to the island to work at and eventually become the owner of Sea Saba. Since 2003, she has incorporated annual eco-programming in her dive shop's operations, and eventually this became so successful that these programs became their own standalone organization known as Sea and Learn Saba. Lynn and her team have spent the past several years investing in this initiative which helps to educate visitors and conserve the nature and culture of Saba along with sister islands! Tune in this week to learn all about the amazing work this organization is doing in the Eastern Caribbean.
    Head over to https://www.seaandlearn.org/ to learn more about Lynn and her team's work!
