  • Check out this video as we take the BALEARIA FERRY From Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale to the Bimini Bahamas. The inexpensive Balearia ferry was only 2.5 hours long and about a 50 mile hike.
    If you are interested in a nice vacation to Bimini Bahamas, I recommend taking the roundtrip Balearia Ferry.

    Nice info. I went with a different company on a day trip when they had ferries from Miami about 2 years ago. I think this company is more pricy, but it looks bigger and nicer. There were no available carts on the island but a guy gave us a ride to the beach in his truck and when we were walking back, a local stopped and asked if we wanted to ride on his cart. I can't wait to go back.

    Timewise only, 2 ½ hours is like going from the heart of Beverly Hills to the small harbor on, still wild, "Catalina Island" in the Pacific Ocean, formerly owned by the Wrigley's chewing gum empire.

    Thank you for this video, I'm planning a trip to FLD (Miami and Ft. Lauderdale) in December 2021 from Canada. What were the covid testing protocols. I'm reading that you must have proof of negative covid test 3 days before departure with your vaccine passport. I'll have a test before leaving Canada but that test will be no good once I plan my trip to Bimini. Did you have to show negative covid test? and do you know where in Miami or Ft. Lauderdale I can get a rapid test to take this day trip to Bahamas. I'm fully vaccinated.

    • @chasingbeaches
      @chasingbeaches  2 года назад

      Hi Kimberly. Yeah we had to show a negative test result and then submit that with the “travel passport” Timelines were slim for sure. Not sure about testing locations. Might want to call the ferry direct.

      Hi Melissa. The way there was smooth as it runs in the am. Mornings usually a bit smoother. On the way back it was a bit rough. We took motion sickness medicine and were fine. Yeah that tram brings you to a central area to rent golf carts. Plenty available. Second stop brings you to the Hilton.
