Porgy Bay

Porgy Bay sits on the Bahamian island of North Bimini in the Atlantic. It’s a coastal area with easy access to shallow reefs and nearby dive sites reachable by short boat trips from local operators. The Bahamas offer clear warm water, abundant reef fish, and occasional wildlife encounters. While Porgy Bay itself isn’t a major dive hub, it serves as a gateway to the northern Bahamas' reef systems and local dive centers typically provide guided dives, equipment rentals, and beginner to intermediate courses. The area is best suited for relaxed, shore-accessible and boat-based diving with generally calm conditions and good visibility.
