9:30 am - 10:30 am

Some guests may wish to explore the surrounding waters or visit the Sapona on their free time. The 270-foot Sapona was built by Henry Ford in 1911 and served as a troop transport for just one trip during World War I. After the war, the Sapona was used by rumrunners between the Bahamas and Florida during Prohibition. A hurricane in the late 1920s drove the ship aground between South Bimini and Cat Cay, where she only partially submerged. Today the Sapona is very popular with divers and snorklers. 

Free time is built into the Bimini Bash event schedule. Go ahead and try your luck at the casino, explore the authentic Bahamian village of Alice Town, or just unwind while watching a spectacular sunset on the beach or pool deck!  

Farewell Banquet - BEACH PAVILION

Relax and enjoy a refreshing cocktail as you take in the beautiful tropical beachfront panorama. Share some stories of your Bimini adventures with new found friends. Then prepare yourself for an exquisite island dinner complete with an open bar under the stars. An awards ceremony honors the top anglers and other deserving bash particiapants! Guests will be treated to the sounds of our talented DJ throughout this memorable evening.

Cocktail hour starts at 7:00 pm. Banquet begins at 8:00 pm.
