A hard day, but great. Unfortunately no on-site support. When does the ferry come, what time do you have to be there, what is the beach pass for - you have to find out yourself. You don't need the beach pass or we haven't figured out what for.

Information about the long waiting time both on the way to the ferry and on the way home again you could well inform about. In addition, the bus was 20 minutes late, without any information about it.

Ferries from Ft. Lauderdale at 9am and return from Bimini at 6.30pm. A great day with access to Paradise Beach and the Hilton Hotel. It was cool on the ferry, so remember a jersey. Rent a golf cart at Bimini.
