SOUTH BIMINI
Bimini is a mere 40 miles east of Miami, so close that you can see the glow of the city at night. This island is by far the closest to the United States. It is a short journey by plane or boat from Florida making if very assessable for both U.S. and Canadian travelers. South Bimini is the largest area in the Biminis, with a length of four miles and an average width of one mile. In the southwest is a limestone ridge and at the northwest tip it is very sandy. The most fertile land in The Biminis is found in the central area and you can still see remnants of old farms. There is a large salt water bay, called Cavelle Pond, mangroves and some marshland at the eastern end and, on the bay side, are two lakes -- one with fresh sweet water and the other with brackish water.

CAYO COCO
(143 square miles, 370 km in size) has over 13 and a half miles (22 km) of fine white sandy beaches bathed by turquoise water protected by coral reefs. Ninety percent of its territory is covered with vegetation (mainly forest), and over 200 of spcies of birds-including a colony of more than 30.000 Roseate Flamingos (Phoenicopterus ruber ruber)- live here. Few other places in the Caribbean can compete with the beauty of the seabed and number of fish in this area. There are four scuba diving centers and 20 diving sites along 20 miles (32 km) of coastline. In its warm, clear water, that is between 16.5 and 131 feet (between 5 and 40 m) deep, you can see Parrotfish (Sparisoma spp.), Grunts (Haemulon spp.), Yellowtail Snappers (Ocyurus chrysurus), Queen Angelfish (Holacanthus ciliaris). other Angelfish (Pomacanthu spp.), Anemones (Lebrunia danae), Spiny Lobster (Panulirus argus) and a great variety of underwater plants.

BEEF ISLAND
The aerial hub of the British Virgin Islands lies on Beef Island, Tortola, a peninsula that connects itself to the main landmass by a narrow strip of land off of the east coast. Most travelers to the BVI will eventually land at the Beef Island/Tortola International Airport, but there are no direct flights into Beef Island/Tortola, from the North American mainland. Local BVI government measures to preserve the islands' natural appeal prevent large international carriers from landing at Beef Island/Tortola, or the airport at Virgin Gorda; flights from the US and Canada (as well as Europe) must connect, rather, via another Caribbean island on one of the smaller island-hopper airlines which are accepted at Beef Island/Tortola. Convenient daily flights from San Juan, Puerto Rico, and St. Thomas, USVI, make this a viable alternative. Cape Air, Air Sunshine, and American Eagle all offer service between Beef Island/Tortola and both San Juan and St. Thomas./
