Islands In The Stream

Board your yacht in Fort Lauderdale on this 5 day yacht cruise and enjoy an evening on board or relax in the hot tub under the royal palms before cruising. You are bound for Hemingway’s legendary Islands in the Stream.

5 Days / 4 Nights Round Trip Fort Lauderdale to Bimini, Bahamas

Day 1: Now you are in the Yachting Capital of the World. Please enjoy the many options available from relaxing at the dock to cruising the waterways, maybe a sunset cruise or out to dinner& Or even Horsdouvers on the Bridge with your guests, the Captain usually has some special treats. Remember the spa is waiting under the Royal Palms at The Resort just in case you want to indulge yourself later.  Settle in an secure your gear as we are available to start as early or as late as you wish the next day.

Day 2: Departure time 0800-1000 Hrs. Refresh yourself with an early swim at the beach or a little kayaking if you like. Either way, we are off on another exciting voyage to Bimini  Hemingway’s “Island in the Stream” and the Gateway to the Bahamas. Perched at the edge of a sheer underwater cliff that falls thousands of feet into the blue abyss, Bimini is the Family Islands’ favorite diving and fishing outposts.

As we launch off towards the Gulf Stream, see how many shades of blue water you can name. Sightseeing and big game fishing is in order as Port Everglades grows smaller on the west horizon. Lunch is served al fresco on deck before we tie up at our island marina and your island adventure begins. This evening, dine overlooking the ocean at one of Bimini’s waterfront restaurants where fresh island lobster, peas and rice, or maybe conch chowder are served up Bahamian style.

Day 3: Start the off a day of exploring Bimini. There’s snorkeling, beaches, and island historic sites to absorb. Perhaps a kayak visit to the healing hole—nature’s hot tub in the mangroves, or the real “Fountain of Youth.” Visit the site of the former Complete Angler, Hemingway’s old house, or the Bimini Big Game Club. Venture out on foot to find a roadside stand and don’t miss having a fresh conch salad made to order! Tonight party to live island style music with a tropical rum punch or two.

Day 4: We push off back to the mainland. Our course is another Gulf Stream crossing back to the Yachting Capital of the world before we tie up for the night at Coconut Bay, our home port for one last night on board. If we have a little luck fishing, just maybe your crew will prepare a special seafood dinner (obviously with your fresh catch of the Day), or there is always a multitude of choices for dinner all within steps of our docks at Coconut Bay. Again, a swim at the beach or some kayaking may be in order before dinner. As the stars begin to shine brighter, the night life along Ocean Boulevard in Ft. Lauderdale is heating up again just a short stroll away along our beautiful Beach Walk.

Day 5: There’s time for one last swim or a little more kayaking before your Departure at 1000 Hrs. It has been a pleasure having you aboard!
