A Bahamian getaway is now more accessible than ever, thanks to a new partnership between the Bahamas Ministry of Tourism and Tropic Ocean Airways. This February, the duo launched “Bahamas in a Day,” 25-minute flights to and from Fort Lauderdale International Airport, with eight blissful hours in Bimini in between.
Guests arrive at Tropic Ocean Airways’ private lobby in Fort Lauderdale 30 minutes before departure, take off in the morning, land on the water at North Bimini Seaplane Base by 9 a.m., spend eight hours on the island, and return home to South Florida in the evening.
