I'm in Bimini right now on the Elation. The original location of the free paradise beach was next to the Resort World Beach Club. Apparently that's been taken private and you are no longer allowed there without paying (Pablo's Bimini Experience?). The new free paradise beach is the one at the end of the pier next to the sewage plant. It literally stinks. People were complaining, but no other options for free. So unless you're willing to pay for one of the resorts, this destination is no longer appealing to those on a budget.
