Where is Bimini?
Bimini is a small, seven-mile tropical paradise just 50 miles east of Miami/Ft Lauderdale. It is part of the Bahamas. Bimini actually consists of two islands: North Bimini and South Bimini. The airport is on South Bimini and our shark boat departs from a resort on North Bimini. A water taxi provides transportation between South Bimini and North Bimini.
Do I need a valid passport to travel to the Bahamas?
Yes, a valid passport is required. Note: US Dollars are accepted in the Bahamas and the Bahamas uses the same electrical current as the US and Canada.
What is the cost?
Cage divers pay $925 per person and topside observers pay $525 per person. $4625 for a ½ charter. Call for group and additional charter pricing.
Is there a minimum age to get in the cage?
Cage divers must be at least 8 years old. Anyone under 18 must be accompanied by a parent, grandparent or guardian. The final decision as to who can get in the cage is made the day of the trip by the dive instructor or dive master in charge and may be based on sea conditions and the type of sharks present. Younger children can observe sharks from the deck of our boat.
When is shark season in Bimini?
Shark diving is great all year long in Bimini, but if you hope to see a great hammerhead shark, the best months to dive are December to April. Our dives primarily focus on reef sharks but other sharks may be present.
Where do we board the shark boat?
Trips depart from Bimini Big Game Club Resort and Marina in Alice Town, on North Bimini. You will generally check in at the dive shop at 8:30 am for a 9 am departure and be back at the marina by 4 pm.
How can I get to Bimini?
You can get to Bimini by commercial airline flight, or you can take a seaplane, private boat or commercial ferry from Florida. If you take the ferry from Fort Lauderdale, the travel time is two hours. The flight time from Ft Lauderdale and Miami is about 25 minutes.
