Some of the fun things we do in Bimini!

Bimini is a small island in the Bahamas that’s surrounded by beautiful turquoise blue waters. While only a 20 minute plane ride from Florida, this place will touch you unlike any other place on earth…

The Island: 7 miles long and only 200 yards wide, North Bimini is a narrow strip of land between the Grand Bahamas Bank and the Gulf Stream. Its home to around 2500 friendly Biminites who greet you with a smile. Twice a day the incoming tide surrounds Bimini with beautiful warm clear water from the Gulf of Mexico. The atmosphere here is friendly, easy-going and contagious.

The Dolphins: The dolphins of Bimini love to swim with us! Having swum with wild dolphins around the globe, I’m happy to say that these are the most playful dolphins in the world. Most every movie of wild dolphins includes footage of the Bimini dolphins because they’re so interactive. People say that swimming with these dolphins is one of the most powerful, uplifting experiences of their lives.

The Ocean: The ocean around Bimini is warm and shallow. It is often clear and calm, one of the most inviting waters you’ll ever see. The shallow white sandy bottom and the turquoise blue waters help even the most nervous person overcome their fear and open up to the joy of being in the sea.

Learn to Swim, Snorkel & Freedive: Over the years I’ve taught hundreds of kids, teens, adults and seniors how to swim, snorkel, freedive and find a deeper level of comfort in the sea. Bimini is one of the gentlest, calmest and most beautiful place I’ve ever had the pleasure of teaching people to swim.

Beautiful Shallow Reefs: Bimini has beautiful shallow water reefs that are home to hundreds of colorful fish. Depending on what you wish, we can visit some very famous reefs, including The Stones of Atlantis and the wreck of the Sapona along with some lesser known secret spots.

Hand feed Stingrays: One or two days during your trip we can head south to Honeymoon Harbor where we can hand feed stingrays right from the water’s edge. The stingrays will swim all around you as we feed them bits of squid or conch slop.

Reef Sharks: We can also visit a local shark feeding spot where people have been snorkeling with the reef sharks for decades. Some people are excited to get in and snorkel with the sharks and some prefer to stay on the boat; the choice is always yours!

Fish from Boat: If you wish, we can bring a couple rods and reels and catch some fresh fish while we’re out on the dolphin grounds. No experience necessary!

Learn to Spearfish: After the third time the dolphins gave me fish, i started offering spearfishing to my guests. I’ve had novice swimmers spearfishing and catching their own dinner by the end of the week. If you are interested in spearfishing, we can easily add it to our daily activities. You can learn more about spearfish on my trips here and see photos of guests who chose spearfishing here.

Bimini is a fun, vibrant and beautiful place to come on a vacation holiday. I welcome the opportunity to be your guide and share with you the magic of the island, the dolphins and the sea.
