Bimini BlastBig Game Fishing Meets Island Tradition

There is a moment on the crossing to Bimini when the mainland feels a world away and the water becomes the destination. Deep ocean blue gives way to brilliant turquoise, the island comes into view, and anticipation takes over. For anglers, Bimini offers something special: an island escape with legendary fishing grounds close at hand. The Gulf Stream runs just offshore, bringing marlin, tuna, sailfish, and wahoo through waters that have drawn generations of fishermen.

Big-game fishing is woven into Bimini’s identity, and Ernest Hemingway remains one of the most memorable figures in its history. His time on the island in the 1930s helped connect Bimini with the romance and challenge of offshore fishing. That spirit lives on whenever a crew sets a trolling spread and watches the blue water for signs of life—the anticipation, the powerful strike, and the possibility that the next fish will become a story told for years.

At the heart of that heritage stands Bimini Big Game Club Resort and Marina. Established in 1936 and relocated to its present home in 1947, the club helped bring international attention to Bimini through fishing tournaments and a gathering place for visiting sportsmen. Today, its setting in Alice Town connects guests to both the island’s fishing history and the pleasures of a Bahamas getaway.

For Captain Chase and Bimini Charters, the Big Game Club is a natural home base for an experience that brings serious fishing together with personal service. Aboard the Luxury VIP 61’ Viking Sportfish, The One, the day can follow the offshore bite while still leaving room for guests to enjoy the island. Returning to the marina becomes part of the pleasure: a chance to settle in, share the day’s stories, and appreciate the water from a different perspective.

That is Bimini’s lasting appeal. It offers the anticipation of big-game fishing alongside the simple pleasure of being somewhere beautiful. From Hemingway’s era to today’s visiting anglers, the island continues to inspire adventure. With its proud history, welcoming setting, and connection to the sea, Bimini Big Game Club belongs at the center of that experience—a place to begin an adventure, return from a memorable day offshore, and start looking forward to the next one.

Bimini Resort WorldWhere New World Meets Old Tradition

Bimini has always drawn travelers with its turquoise water, legendary fishing grounds, and unmistakable island character. At Resorts World Bimini, that timeless appeal meets the comforts of a modern Bahamas retreat. Set on North Bimini, the beachfront resort brings together elegant accommodations, ocean views, dining, swimming pools, and casino entertainment—giving guests plenty to enjoy after a day on the water.

For families and groups, the surrounding Bimini Bay community offers another way to experience island luxury. Spacious vacation homes and beachfront villas provide room to settle in, gather together, and enjoy a more private stay. Select properties feature their own swimming pools, while homes in the community’s private-island enclave offer an especially secluded setting. Amenities vary by home, allowing guests to choose the accommodation that best suits their getaway.

The waterfront is central to the experience. Resorts World offers two world class marinas, (Fisherman’s Village and Mega Marina) & adding further docking options for visiting boaters with access close to its hotel and casino. For guests arriving aboard a sportfish or yacht, the appeal is easy to understand: enjoy the offshore adventure, return to the dock, and step into an evening of dining and island hospitality.

Beach days bring their own rewards—white sand, clear water, poolside relaxation, and private cabanas. Bimini is also a signature stop for Virgin Voyages, whose Beach Club offers cruise guests an exclusive shore experience. On days when Virgin Voyages is in port, that beach-club area is reserved for its guests & Gold Vip Members & for access for other visitors follows the resort’s schedule. Back at Resorts World, hotel pools and casino entertainment offer additional ways to enjoy the stay.

For Captain Chase and Bimini Charters, this side of Bimini complements the island’s proud fishing tradition. A day aboard The One, our Luxury VIP 61’ Viking Sportfish, can pair the excitement of offshore fishing with the pleasure of returning to comfortable accommodations and a relaxed evening ashore. This is where new world meets old tradition: modern luxury alongside the blue water, island warmth, and sense of adventure that make Bimini worth returning to.
