Found on the west coast of the USA, Miami is one of the most widely visited cities in North America. The only ferry route out of Miami Port is to the Bimini Islands, with a two hour long crossing running once per day. The vibrancy and liveliness synonymous with Miami is what makes it such a popular holiday destination. Every large city lays claim to ‘having something for everyone’ but Miami really justifies that statement: for partygoers, the nightlife on South Beach is famous across the country, offering all night parties next to idyllic surroundings. For a more relaxing time spent on the white sands of the shoreline, Miami Beach is the perfect place to while away a few hours. Away from the beaches, Miami is famed for its diversity and culture; a vast range of people from all backgrounds inhabit the city, with a Hispanic population becoming particularly prominent, especially in the region known as Little Havana. Visitors from all cultures are welcome to explore the unique buildings and sample the delicious coffee that has become Little Havana's trademark. For a more family orientated day out, the Jungle Island Tropical Attraction or the Seaquarium are commonly visited spots for those with children, and to add an educational touch to the trip, the Children’s Museum is also well worth a visit. The best way to reach Miami Port is probably by car or taxi, though there are some public transport links around the city. By car, just put the address into the GPS and take signs to the cruise terminals, and by train, there are links from the airport and from Freedom Tower Metromover Station from Monday to Saturday.
Big game fishers who get their kicks from chasing the planet’s most monstrous sea creatures will know all about the Bimini Islands. The duet of isles on the western fringes of the Bahamas, surrounded on all sides by the deep-blue surf of the North Atlantic Ocean, is widely regarded as one of the best fishing spots in the world, featuring Marlin and Tuna and the nightmarish form of the fanged Barracuda. Yet the islands are not just the domain of anglers hunting for trophies. The tropical archipelago, spread thinly across the districts of North and South Bimini, is also defined by its breathtaking beauty; every inch covered in emerald-leafed palm trees and luxury holiday villas flanked by long, golden-sand beaches. The coastal shallows are a hotspot for divers and snorkelers too; the coral reefs here teeming with exotic marine life. The island’s port is found on the needlepoint stretch of North Bimini, just a short distance north of Bailey Town. It is little more than a designated section of the beach from which ferries come and go, and as such there are no passenger facilities available. Though there are only a few paved roads in Bimini, all branching away from the Kings and Queen’s highway, the island is no more than 5-miles from tip to tip and most visitors travel around on hired golf carts and bicycles. Just one ferry route currently operates from the dock in North Bimini a few times throughout the week. This route, hosted by FRS Caribbean, sails the short distance west to the city of Miami on the gorgeous coast of Florida.
