Bimini Sands Resort & Marina on South Bimini, Bahamas
Announces New Bonefishing & Fly-Fishing Vacation Packages
South Bimini, Bahamas - Bimini, a Bahamas “Out Island” that's just 50 miles from South Florida, is famous for its world-class bonefishing and saltwater fly-fishing. Now, Bimini Sands Resort & Marina announces affordable new all-inclusive Bonefishing & Fly-Fishing Vacation Packages combining two or more full days of fishing with a professional Bimini bonefish guide, fully equipped condo accommodations, and all meals and beverages. Rates start at $1,229 for a three-night/two-day Bimini Sands Bonefishing & Fly-Fishing Vacation*. In addition, the resort has opened a new U.S. reservations center, making it easier for anglers to book their trips.
The flats around Bimini are legendary waters for hunting the elusive bonefish. Monster “bones” have been taken there—including a 16 lb., 3 oz. world record.
“Bimini is the best place in the Bahamas to go bonefishing,” says local guide “Bonefish Ebbie” David, who has been taking anglers out on the flats for more than 30 years. “Recently, saltwater fly-fishing has been getting more and more popular,” he added.
Bimini Sands Bonefishing/Fly-Fishing Vacation packages feature daily full-day bonefishing/fly-fishing boat trips with Bonefish Ebbie or another local professional guide. They also include:
All fishing equipment
Accommodations in a one-bedroom, marina-view villa with living room & kitchen
All room taxes and service charges
Three meals daily
Free beverages at Bimini Sands' resort restaurants and Mackey's Sand Bar, including alcoholic beverages for adults with valid ID.
