What a Scenery eSIM costs
The cheapest published plan on the Saba travel eSIM is $8.00 for 1 GB valid 7 days. A 2 GB / 15 day plan is $15.00, a 3 GB / 30 day plan is $21.00, and a 5 GB / 30 day plan is $32.50. That is the whole product: four buckets and no unlimited SKU. Per gigabyte the curve improves only slightly, from $8.00 on the entry plan to $6.50 on the 5 GB bucket, so the choice is really about how long you are staying rather than about chasing a cheaper tier. The 3 GB / 30 day plan at $21.00 is the balanced pick for a normal week or two.
Network
The plan is sold under the operator name Scenery and the supported country is Saba. The product page publishes the speed as 4G. That is the figure to plan around, and real speed still depends on the mast, the handset, and the carrier Fair Usage Policy. Saba is a five-square-mile island in the Caribbean Netherlands, and the coverage is specific to it. Note the wording on the product page: coverage is listed as BQ-SA, which is Saba itself, not the wider Caribbean Netherlands grouping. It does not cover Sint Eustatius, Sint Maarten, or Bonaire, so the ferry to Statia or the flight to Sint Maarten needs a separate plan. Saba is a Dutch special municipality, but it is not part of the Netherlands’ European territory, so a European SIM’s home-plan roaming does not carry across to it.
How much data you actually need
The island is small and guesthouse Wi-Fi is common in Windwardside and The Bottom, so 1 GB covers maps, chat, and email for a short stay if you keep photos and video on Wi-Fi. Diving and hiking days are the exception: if you upload photos daily and use the phone as the main connection, the 3 GB / 30 day plan is the safer buy. Hotspot use burns the allowance faster than the phone alone.
Unlimited data
This product has no unlimited plan. Every option is a fixed bucket: 1 GB for 7 days, 2 GB for 15 days, or 3 GB and 5 GB for 30 days. If you run out, the answer is a top-up or a second plan rather than a larger tier, because 5 GB is the ceiling on this product.
Dual SIM
Keep your home SIM for calls and bank texts. Turn on data roaming only for the Scenery line. iPhone: Settings, Mobile Data, pick the travel line. Android: Settings, Network, SIMs, set mobile data to the travel eSIM. Do this before you leave the airport Wi-Fi.
Arrival and transit
Saba has one airport, Juancho E. Yrausquin (SAB) at Flat Point, served by short flights from Sint Maarten, plus a ferry from Sint Maarten’s Simpson Bay to Fort Bay. Almost every visitor therefore arrives via Sint Maarten, and that leg needs its own plan if you want data before you land on Saba. Install the eSIM on hotel or home Wi-Fi before the flight, then switch the data line on after you clear arrivals. You do not need a local shop or a passport photo for this plan.
Install
- Buy the plan and open the QR code in the order email while you still have Wi-Fi.
- On the phone, add an eSIM and scan that code. Label the line “Saba”.
- After landing, set mobile data to that line and leave your home number on for texts.
Phone compatibility
The phone must be carrier-unlocked and eSIM-capable. iPhone XS and later, and recent Samsung Galaxy and Google Pixel models, qualify. A locked handset will not take the QR code. Check the lock status with your home carrier before you pay.
FAQ
Q1: How much is the cheapest Saba eSIM?
$8.00 for 1 GB, valid 7 days, on the Scenery plan.
Q2: Which operator is on the plan?
Scenery. The supported country is Saba.
Q3: Does it include calls and SMS?
No. It is a data plan, with voice calls only through apps such as WhatsApp or FaceTime. Keep your home SIM for calls and one-time passwords.
Q4: Is it 5G?
No. The product page lists the speed as 4G. Real speed still depends on coverage and the Fair Usage Policy.
Q5: Can I install it after I land?
Yes, if you can reach Wi-Fi. Installing before the flight is simpler, because the QR download needs a connection and the arrival airport is tiny.
Q6: Will it work outside Saba?
No. Sint Eustatius, Sint Maarten, and Bonaire each need their own plan, so a multi-island trip needs more than one eSIM.
Q7: Is there an unlimited option?
No. There is no unlimited SKU on this product. The largest bucket is 5 GB over 30 days at $32.50.
Q8: Can I share it as a hotspot?
Yes, within the data allowance. Hotspot traffic counts against the same gigabytes, and heavy sharing can hit the Fair Usage Policy.
Q9: What if the QR code fails?
Use the manual activation code in the same email. The phone still has to be unlocked.
Q10: When were these prices checked?
October 2026, against the published variation prices on travelydata.com.
Bottom line
For a short stay on Saba, the $8.00 / 1 GB Scenery plan is enough if you lean on guesthouse Wi-Fi. Take the 2 GB plan for two weeks with regular uploads, or 3 GB / 30 days at $21.00 if the phone is your main connection and you are diving or hiking most days. The published speed is 4G, coverage is Saba only, and there is no unlimited option.
