Crossing the Atlantic Ocean on a Jetski | Florida to Bimini, Bahamas

Starting the morning off in Miami, I trailered my Jetski up to Fort Lauderdale. Launching out of Harbour Towne Marina was a breeze. The Marina has plenty of parking and 24 hour security.

Conditions weren't perfect, but it was still manageable to make the crossing. I only used 1, out of the 2, 5 gallon gas cans. Some of the safety equipment I had was a VHF radio, EPIRB, flare and navigation using Navionics downloaded maps on my cell phone.

Watching the big buildings on the coast of south Florida disappear as we were riding deeper into the Atlantic was a daunting feeling. But seeing the island of Bimini from the distance has got to be one of the most exciting moments of my life.

When arriving in Bimini, you will need to check-in with customs clearance. I stayed at Resorts World, which was gorgeous! There isn't much to do on Bimini, rent a golf cart and you will be able to see the entire island in 1 day.

The Bahamian Conch Salad is as fresh as can be and everything served by the local food stands is delicious.

This was truly an adventure of a lifetime and something I will remember forever. I am glad I was able to check this off my bucket list and I hope to do it again someday.

Thank you for watching!
