Bimini’s Goombay Festival Is Back

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - July 3, 2023

One of the most spirited festivals of the year on the island of Bimini in The Bahamas is back this summer: the Bimini Goombay Summer Festival, which is returning from July 28-29.

This year’s festival will be a “weekend full of fresh, local cuisine, Junkanoo performances and live entertainment.”

The latter will be provided by Stevie S and the Live Prime Time Band. 

It’s never been easier to get to Bimini, whether you’re flying from South Florida or taking the convenient Balearia ferry.
