Ecotourism On Bimini

Ecotourism On Bimini

Bimini is rich in natural attractions, like the legendary Gulf Stream in which it sits and naturally occurring phenomena not found anywhere else in The Bahamas. Of note are the fabled Fountain of Youth that drew Explorer Juan Ponce de Leon here, the Healing Hole fresh-water springs gurgling from a saltwater swamp at Bonefish Creek, Shark Mound (500 feet long and 10 feet high) and several other creature-shaped mounds naturally formed from the sand. You will want to visit the Bimini Biological Field Station, a shark lab/research station that studies the role of the lemon shark. Learn about wild dolphins through the Bimini Dolphin Communication Project and interact with them in the wild. Hike through The Bimini Nature Trail and get up close to the plants and animals that call Bimini home, like the Bimini Boa only found here. Organized tours let you easily experience all these wonders.
