Saül is a commune of French Guiana, an overseas region and department of France located in South America. It is the most sparsely populated commune of French Guiana.

It is very remote, surrounded by dense rainforest; because there are no roads to the town, it can only be reached via the Saül Airport. The village is located in the centre of French Guiana where springs give rise to three major rivers: the Mana, the Inini, and the Approuague.[1]

The principal activities in the town are gold mining and trekking through the many rainforest trails. There is a tourist camp (Larozaly) and hotel (Les Eaux Claires) in the town.
