Filming Locations in Bahamas

If your film production is searching for locations such as beautiful white sandy beaches, private islands, turquoise waters, and stunning underwater sceneries, the Bahamas is the perfect destination. With its 700 islands, there is much more to explore beyond what’s been mentioned.

Nassau

The tourist cruises dock in the bay of Nassau, with stunning turquoise water in the ocean.

Nassau, the capital and largest city of the Bahamas, is home to over 70% of the country’s population. It serves as the center of commerce, education, law, administration, and media. The city can be easily accessed by air or sea, with an airport and multiple docks available, making it a convenient location for film productions.

Paradise Island

View from the hotel on Paradise Island to the beautiful white sandy beach and ocean.

Paradise Island, formerly known as Hog Island, is located just off the shore of the city of Nassau on the northern edge of the island of New Providence. It is most notable for the numerous resorts, including Atlantis, which features extensive water park rides, pools, beaches, restaurants, a walk-in aquarium, and casinos. One of the casinos at Atlantis was even used in the filming of ‘Casino Royale’.

Bimini

A great view off the coast of Bimini, the westernmost island in the Bahamas.

Bimini is the closest point in the Bahamas to mainland Miami, Florida, United States. Popular activities here include scuba diving and snorkeling, as there are many shipwrecks in the area. The Bimini Airport in South Bimini Island was used as a filming location for “The Silence of the Lambs”.

CocoCay

Bird’s eye view of CocoCay with a cruise ship docked.

CocoCay or Little Stirrup Cay is one of the Berry Islands, a collection of Bahamian cays and small islands located north of Nassau. It is used for tourism by the Royal Caribbean Group exclusively. A family trip or vacation movie would be great to shoot on this island.

Ben’s Cave

A spectacular view underwater at the entrance of Ben’s Cave.

Ben’s Cave is one of the two inland blue holes within The Lucayan National Park. This natural feature is definitely a sight to see, and a dive into the cavern is a visit to the ancient past. Noted you must be a professional diver to dive here, but to get a look from underwater like this would be a stunning image on the screen in your film.
