The beautiful Bimini Islands offer visitors beaches, world-famous fishing, and many other ways to enjoy Paradise. The tiny Biminis, situated 40 miles (80km) off the coast of Florida, are home to the finest fishing in the Bahamas, and attract many sportsmen to the championship fishing tournaments held year round. Bimini is where the waters of Florida's gulfstream meets The Bahama Banks. For diving fans, be sure and visit the underwater stone formation rumored to be part of the Lost City of Atlantis. Situated just 48 miles off the coast of South Florida on the quaint Bahamian island of North Bimini lies the new Bimini Bay Resort + Casino. It features 96 vacation rentals comprised of condominiums, loft-like treehouses and single family homes. The resort also offers a full-service marina, infinity pool, grille, Swedish and Thai massage services, childrens playground and a fine dining restaurant overlooking the ocean. Real estate opportunities are available, including direct oceanfront lots and exclusive home sites on the resort's private island. Plans are underway for a Fishermans Village, Conrad Hotel, casino, spa, Robert Trent Jones, Jr.-designed links golf course, second private island and an additional marina that will accommodate mega yachts.
