25° 43.3′ N · 79° 17.9′ W
The first marina to port as you enter Bimini harbour, a modest 19-slip operation sharing a boardwalk with Big John's bar, consistently praised for its dockhands and low rates.
Practical
Position from ActiveCaptain. Call the dockmaster on VHF 16 for a slip; phone +1 305-799-3143, dockmaster@brownsmarinabimini.com. Marinas.com lists 10 ft approach, 13 ft MLW alongside, boats to 150 ft, slips to 28 ft wide, fixed docks. Rates on ActiveCaptain (July 2026 update): $2.00/ft year-round, power metered $0.65, water $0.30/gal; a March 2026 review confirms $2/ft. 30/50/100-amp; a reviewer recommends carrying a 50-to-30 amp adapter. No fuel (use Bimini Blue Water). Strong reversing tidal current through the slips, slack four times a day: arrive near slack, especially under sail. Expect loud music from the neighbouring bars late on weekends (reviews December 2025 and February 2026). Customs is a 10-15 minute walk north; the marina has offered golf-cart rides. Water taxi to South Bimini is half a block away.
