Radio Beach is a beautiful beach located on the southern end of North Bimini in The Bahamas.

The beach has really soft sand, turquoise water, and awesome snorkeling.

When we got off of our cruise ship, we walked 0.5 miles to Sue & Joy's Golf Cart Rentals.

You have the choice of taking the free tram or walking. 

We decided to walk to see the beautiful views from the bridge.

As we were leaving the port, there are signs along the sidewalk pointing you in the right direction.

As you're leaving the cruise port, to the right you'll see the arch and across the street you will see Kayak Beach. Go ahead and cross the street and follow the sidewalk to the left over to Sue & Joy's Golf Cart Rental.

As you get to the roundabout, you'll see all of the golf carts and a blue building titled "Sue & Joy's". This is where we rented our golf cart for the day.

We got the mid tier golf cart for $140 for the day. We drove the 2.2 miles down to Radio Beach. In the Bahamas, you drive on the left side of the road. These are some of the views along the way.

We locked up our golf cart and then went to explore what services were available at Radio Beach.

We saw a sign showing that there are no life guards on duty at Radio Beach.

We walked out onto the beach and noticed a lot of rocks to the left hand side. We walked down to that part of the beach to go snorkeling.

We brought our own snorkeling gear. They did not have any rentals here.

As we got in the water we saw all sorts of fish. We also saw some small jelly fish. We were able to navigate around them and we didn't get stung by them. We really enjoyed snorkeling here.

CHECKLIST:

These are the checklist items I recommend:

  • Bring your own snorkeling gear.
  • Bring your own snacks and drinks or some money to buy some there.
  • Bring reef safe sunscreen.
  • We recommend renting a golf cart to get there, but if you're going to walk make sure you have a comfortable pair of shoes for the 2.2 mile hike there. The free tram at the port only runs to the north end of the island.
