Bimini
Fifty miles from Florida but unmistakably Bahamian, Bimini is a small island with outsized character. It’s the home of bonefishing flats and marlin runs, where mornings begin at the marina and afternoons end on quiet beaches. Resorts World Bimini delivers modern indulgence — infinity pools, beach clubs, and sleek villas — while the historic Bimini Big Game Club still hums with the charm of a fishing legend. You can spend a day chasing bonefish across the shallows, or a night swapping stories at a seaside bar. Bimini has that rare mix of nostalgia and now — a frontier made for salt, sunlight, and stories.
