The beaches are just beautiful and most are free. If you don’t mind a bit of a walk from the ship, you can go on the beach at the port. Being it’s a new island port, there is a lot of confusion. The tram drivers failed to tell people that the casinos and shops were not open and dropped guests off. Not too organized yet. If you hop on the tram it just makes a constant round trip to the beaches, casino at the Hilton, and other stops. Easy on and off and free!!! You can take a cab to the straw market from the port for $5 each way. There didn’t look like much to do but swim at the beach. There was also not much shopping that we saw. You can tell it’s a new port. My guess is that when they work the kinks out, it will be a favorite port for many beach goers. The big negative is they made a mask mandate in the island. You can take it off to swim but it must be worn off the ship and such. All in all a nice day at Bimini 😊

This island was beautiful organized and easy to get around thank you to Bimini for having free trams to go to all the free beaches that they have to offer after reading a few post about jellyfish we bought special sunblock but we did not need it we were there all day and never saw one or any seaweed the water was crystal clear we went to the 360 beach you can get right off the tram or you can also go to the resorts and both beaches are free you just don’t have a chair or umbrella that is extra great beach day there can’t wait to go again everyone was super nice and welcoming
