Dive Spot Guide•
Hammerhead Site
Bimini shark dive for close hammerhead encounters.
Boat-only shark dive outside Bimini harbor; timing shifts with weather, tides and shark activity.
About Hammerhead Site
Hammerhead Site is Bimini’s signature shark dive, a sandy-bottom setup outside the harbor where the crew positions divers for close views of great hammerheads. The site itself is plain but deliberate, so the interest comes from the encounter rather than reef structure. It suits advanced divers who are comfortable with a managed shark dive, patient stillness and a boat schedule that changes with weather, tides and shark activity. The shallow setting keeps the dive photogenic and easy to read.
