A five-minute walk on Bimini takes you to secluded beaches with crystal-blue water, white sands and palm trees. The beaches of Bimini are timeless and spotless, they're used in photo shoots for magazines the world over. Who knows what treasures you'll find on our beaches? Beaches extend the whole length of Bimini, six miles, and wrap around to the east another five miles with wonderful nature walks and shelling. You can walk the entire distance or rent a small boat to take you to your own secluded beach.

For the Bimini road, healing hole, memory rock, fountain of youth, the shark mound, wild dolphins and all that great fishing and scuba diving to be lumped together into such a neat little package is a true gift of the universe. It doesn't matter whether it was presented to us by the hand of whatever Creator you choose to believe in, by a group of aliens, natural conditions, or even by Harpo Marx, the fact is, that because of the presence of so many different anomalies and superlatives, Bimini is a mystical place and we humans love mystical places.

Bimini is world famous for its bone fish and blue water fishing. Professional guides are only too happy to take you where the big ones hang out. You can make your own arrangements or we'd be pleased to help.

A short cab ride takes you to Alice Town with its restaurants, bars and nightlife and native straw markets. You will also find a fully equipped dive shop where you can arrange diving, snorkeling, kayaking, and swims with the wild dolphins of Bimini. Rent a golf cart to explore the island or take the ferry over to the South Island to the longest beach and other adventures.
