Review & FAQ:

Bimini Island is actually made up of 2 adjoining islands, North Bimini and South Bimini, which lie just 50 miles east of Florida. The island was once a favorite vacation destination of Ernest Hemingway and is known for offering wonderful dive sites and some very special unique marine experiences. Here you can enjoy swimming with playful wild dolphins which are regularly found in the waters north of the island. You could also take the opportunity to go on a scuba adventure to observe the Hammerheads and Bull sharks which frequent the waters in winter. Most visitors come to soak up the sun, enjoy the beaches or spend their days enjoying excellent fishing.
