Scuba Diving in Bimini

Bimini is a small Island in the Bahamas some 7 miles long and only about 700 feet wide at its widest point. It is located about 50 miles south of Florida and is the western most Islands of the Bahamas - it is also home to some of the best Scuba Diving sites in the world. Crystal clear waters and an average water temperature of 80 degrees even at depth are only some of the reasons why. The waters beneath Bimini are home to millions of sea creatures, an underwater mountain, and just maybe - a road to a mythical kingdom.

Scuba divers are attracted to Bimini because of its magnificent reefs overflowing with 100’s of species of marine life. Moray Alley, Hawksbill Reef and Rainbow Reef are just some of the popular dive sites off of Bimini. These Reef Dive sites offer depths from 25-75 feet so there is plenty to do and see for divers of all skill levels. The legendary “Bimini Road” that some claim could be evidence of the lost continent of Atlantis is here for divers to see and form their own opinions - as is The Bimini Barge, which has been consistently rated by Skin Diver magazine as one of the Top Ten Wreck Dives in the Bahamas and Caribbean.
