Bahamas › Bimini
Bimini yacht charter
TL;DR: Bimini is the closest Bahamas charter ground to Florida, roughly a 50-mile crossing from Miami, which makes it the easiest Bahamas destination to reach by boat. It suits a short 2–4 day charter as well as the first stop on a longer Bahamas itinerary. Day and overnight charters are available alongside week-long crewed options.

Why charter to Bimini
Bimini sits directly across the Gulf Stream from Miami, so a charter here avoids the longer crossing or flight that Nassau, Abaco or the Exumas require. The water turns electric blue almost immediately, and the islands are small enough to cover thoroughly in a short trip, which makes Bimini a strong fit for a long weekend rather than a full week.
What a Bimini charter looks like
- Day charter from Miami — a crossing and a day on the water, back the same day or overnight at anchor.
- 2–4 day crewed charter — the most common Bimini booking: enough time to cross, anchor, and explore without committing to a full week.
- First leg of a longer Bahamas trip — some charters use Bimini as the entry point before continuing toward Nassau or the Abacos.
What it costs
A short crewed charter to Bimini generally runs lower than a full week elsewhere in the Bahamas, since the crossing and cruising ground are both compact. Expect the same cost structure as any Bahamas charter — charter fee, APA, Bahamian taxes and crew gratuity. See Bahamas yacht charter cost for the full breakdown.
