If you’ve already “been there, done that” with Freeport and Nassau, it’s time to level up your island game. Let me put you on to Bimini; a laid-back Bahamian gem that’s just 50 miles from Florida but feels like a world away.
Known as the Islands of Legends, Bimini is where Ernest Hemingway found his seaside muse, and where some believe the Lost City of Atlantis may still sleep beneath the sea. It’s the westernmost district of The Bahamas; a quiet chain of islands 80 km east of Miami with a population of just 2,417 (compared to over 400,000 across the entire Bahamas).
And y’all… it’s giving peace, clarity, and ocean breeze. 🌊💙
🎯 Quick Trip to Bimini Breakdown:
🛳️ Round-trip ferry from Fort Lauderdale via Balearia🏨 2-night stay at Resorts World Bimini💵 Packages start at $349 per person👧🏾 Kids (ages 3–12) from $148🛂 Passport required.
Want something even quicker? Same-day round-trip ferry is around $120 which is perfect for a last-minute “me time” reset or a chill day trip with bae or your bestie.
We rented a golf cart for $80 and literally drove from one end of the island to the other in 15 minutes.
Now don’t let its size fool you, Bimini is big on vibes. You’ll get:
✔️ Clear turquoise water
✔️ Fresh seafood
✔️ Barefoot luxury
✔️ A chance to just disconnect from the noise
And if you’re into fishing then hello, blue marlin capital of the Bahamas!
Would you swap your usual cruise port for a Bimini quickie?
