Plongée à Bimini — Bahamas
Bimini is just 50 miles from Miami and has become the go-to destination for close encounters with great hammerhead sharks in winter. Wild Atlantic spotted dolphins play in the shallows, and the Gulf Stream brings big pelagics close to shore. The Bimini Road — a mysterious underwater rock formation — adds intrigue.
