Homes and Properties for Sale in South Bimini
South Bimini's housing market spans a wide range: waterfront condos in Bimini Cove, single-family homes and land in Port Royal, and larger vacant parcels suited to custom builds. Recent listings include a one-bedroom condo at $185,500 and a three-bedroom home at $799,000: a broader price spread than North Bimini's more resort-concentrated inventory, and one that appeals to a wider range of budgets and long-term investment goals.
Bimini Cove Real Estate
Bimini Cove is South Bimini's primary condo community, with active listings currently ranging from $185,500 to $425,000 across one-, two-, and three-bedroom units close to the marina. See full listings and community details on the Bimini Cove real estate page.
Port Royal Subdivision
Port Royal is a long-established South Bimini community of roughly 200 properties, mixing canal-front lots with single-family homes, currently ranging from a $420,000 lot to a $799,000 canal-front home. See full listings and community details on the Port Royal Bimini real estate page.
Buccaneer Point and South Bimini Land for Sale
Buccaneer Point is another South Bimini community with current inventory, including a two-bedroom home listed at $375,000: a quieter pocket of the island with its own small footprint of homes and villas set apart from the larger Bimini Cove and Port Royal communities.
Beyond established communities like Bimini Cove, Port Royal, and Buccaneer Point, South Bimini also offers larger vacant land parcels: current listings include a sizable parcel near $650,000, suited to buyers planning a custom build, a luxury private residence, or a longer-term investment hold rather than an immediate purchase. For buyers searching specifically for land rather than a finished home, South Bimini's inventory tends to offer more flexibility on lot size than the more built-out communities closer to the marina.

Why Buyers Choose South Bimini
South Bimini's appeal comes down to space and pace. Where North Bimini concentrates around resort development and marina traffic, South Bimini offers larger lots, lower density, and a slower rhythm, while still sitting minutes from deep sea fishing, pristine beaches, and the same short crossing to South Florida that defines the whole island. Direct access to the water remains central to daily life here, whether that means a private dock behind a canal-front home or a short walk to the beach from a Bimini Cove condo.
It's a strong fit for buyers who want privacy and room to build without giving up boat access or proximity to Miami. The island's proximity to Florida: a short flight or boat crossing continues to draw residents and part-time homeowners alike. For dedicated dockage instead, see Bimini boat and dock slips for sale.
Location and Getting to South Bimini
South Bimini sits just across a narrow channel from North Bimini, about 50 miles from Miami and South Florida: one of the shortest international crossings from the U.S. to The Bahamas. Boaters regularly make the trip themselves, while others arrive by ferry or a short flight connecting through Nassau or Florida. That short distance keeps South Bimini within easy reach for weekend owners as well as full-time residents, without requiring the longer travel times common to islands farther from the mainland.
Investing in South Bimini Real Estate
South Bimini's mix of land, condos, and homes supports a range of investment strategies, from generating rental income through a Bimini Cove condo to a longer-term land hold in Port Royal. Purchases at $1,000,000 or more also qualify for Bahamas Permanent Residency, which carries full tax neutrality, including exemption from capital gains, worth factoring in for buyers assembling a larger South Bimini portfolio over multiple purchases.

Why Work With Pitt Property Group
Pitt Property Group is a boutique, Bahamian-owned brokerage. Bimini is led directly by Sheldon Pitt, Broker and Principal, a Bimini native with over 30 years of experience across North and South Bimini and recognition from Caribbean Journal as a leading expert on the island's market. That's direct, lived knowledge of South Bimini's communities, not a generalist's read on the market.
Before You Buy in South Bimini
As with any Bahamas purchase, due diligence matters: title search, survey, and a clear understanding of what's included in the sale. The process typically moves through an offer, inspection, and closing, and a local attorney is strongly advised to navigate the registration steps specific to foreign buyers.
Waterfront properties also carry island-specific considerations — hurricane insurance and coastal exposure are worth factoring into your budget alongside the purchase price. Property tax rates and foreign-investment registration requirements vary by property type and have changed in recent years, so confirm current figures with a Bahamian attorney or accountant before finalizing a purchase.
