Rainbow Reef

Rainbow Reef

One of the most colorful, shallow reefs in Bimini is the Rainbow Reef. Shallow reefs are great nurseries for young fish. Expect to see juvenile damselfish, sergeant majors and other tropicals hiding among the ledges. Look closely and you may see fish guarding a nestful of eggs. The reef is a protected marine park with more than 100 species of fish. At one time there was a statue of Christ, but recent hurricanes have destroyed the statue. All that remains is the base on the sandy bottom. On the deeper parts of the reef divers may see turtles, huge schools of fish and often nurse sharks.
