Bimini is a group of small islands in the Bahamas and is only 50 miles east of Miami Beach, Florida. These are actually two small islands. North Bimini and South Bimini, separated by a narrow channel.

Shallow reefs near the shore surround Bimini. The depth increases to 80 to 100 feet before dropping into the abyss of the Gulf Stream. The Gulf Stream current flows north through the deep water between Miami and Bimini, where the ocean is over 6000 feet deep. Moreover, the Gulf Stream brings hundreds of marine animals near the shores of Bimini.

Bimini has earned a great name as the “Game Fishing Capital of the World.” In reality, Bimini’s fame comes from Hemingway and fishing. Hemingway spent a few seasons in Bimini fishing and writing ‘To Have and To Have Not’. And later based his novel ‘Islands in the Stream here.

The economic fuel of Bimini comes from deep-sea fishing. Many black and white photos of record catches around the island. April through July, anglers from around the world flock to the Bahamas to take advantage of the calm seas and great fishing. This region has witnessed and recorded captures of Shortfin Mako sharks, Bigeye Thresher sharks, Spiny Dogfish, and Sixgill Sharks.
