About

Cove Bay is a is coastal bay on the island of Saba in the Dutch Caribbean. It is located on the southeastern coast of the Flat Point peninsula, below the Juancho E. Yrausquin Airport and the Flat Point Tide Pools.

The bay is one of a few places for swimming on Saba. Cove Bay's swimming area is shielded from waves by a wall of large rocks; these rocks were brought down from Flat Point after being removed to help make airplane approaches easier. Cove Bay is a snorkeling site and dive site. The area is also popular for barbecues and picnics. Sand has been brought in to Cove Bay from St. Maarten, to create an artificial beach.
