Is Bermuda a good place for tourism?

Question

I am going on a cruise to Bermuda and I want to know about past experiences.

Answer 1

BEWARE THE TRIANGLE!

Can't anyone joke anymore?! Humor has been murdered!

Answer 2

my family and I flew there.. honestly it was the best place i had ever been. the beaches were beautiful, the water crystal clear blue and the sand was pink.. yes everything is more expensive. i went about...3 years ago and gas was 6.30 a gallon. but it was well worth it. everyone was extremely nice and welcoming and willing to give suggestions of places to eat and things to see. talk to a travel agent, they can help you.

there are crystal caves, and i actually rode a jet ski out into the triangle. it was pretty cool. we stopped above a sunken ship and fed the fish. you can see lizards on trees and here these frogs all the time. the hotel i stayed at was the princess something....it was amazing. they had several pools, a gym, a bar, a water bar in the pool, great rooms, great service. they offered a shuttle service (included in your stay at the hotel) which got you most places you wanted to go.

if you love great weather, great swimming/water, and nice people, and want to relax/explore and sunbathe....definitely go there!

Answer 3

Very Expensive and plenty of snobs....

The views are great but i'd rather be somewhere else....

Answer 4

Yes it is a great place to cruise to.  I have been to Bermuda twice on cruise ships. So I will tell you what I know based on my two trips there.

Bermuda has some of the best beaches anywhere; pink sand beaches that you can easily find a deserted spot on. In my two visit it seemed to me that the majority of the people visiting the island were those on the two or three cruise ships which docked there during my stay. There are a few hotels in the town of Hamilton and about a dozen other properties/beach hotels, but they are nice. There are NO slums and ghettos in Bermuda like you may see on other islands like the Caribbean. It's a very safe island to travel around, even on the buses. All of the houses are well maintained and painted in pastel colors. All of the public beaches are great. Be sure to go to Elbow Beach and Long Bay Beach. When you cruise there its less expensive than flying and staying in a hotel because, you stay and eat on the ship. We ate on ship and that was good because meals (and everything else) are expensive since everything has to be imported. In fact Bermuda is an expensive place for about everything.

There is not a lot to do in Bermuda other than water sports and golf. There are two main towns Hamilton, the largest (where most cruise ships dock for at least a day) and St George (also a port stop) which is like a small town.

St George is like a small new England town with a small town square and a few shops. But it has bus service that will take you anywhere on the island, and since the island is pretty small (about 22 miles long) it only takes a few minutes to go other places. You can visit one of the many forts on the island like Fort St Catherine , its walking distance from St George also. If you want to the beach from St George you have several options within walking distance of St George and if you want to snorkel, the Tobacco Bay Beach near the town of St George is great, and its walking distance (about 3/4 mile from town).

The third place ships may dock while there is The Kings Dockyard.. The Dockyard is on the far end of the 22 mile long island and has a small mall with shops and a museum. It also has a new attraction called Snorkel Park Beach. The Crystal Cave and Fantasy Caves are worth visiting as a tour, or on your own. I also visited one of the lighthouses.

In the town of Hamilton we took a walking tour from our ship which took us to the Cathedral of the Most Holy, a maritime museum and a nice garden/park a few blocks from the port. There is shopping in Hamilton and restaurants, but not much else.

The best way to get around in Bermuda is to buy a transportation pass (sold in stores and the bus station) which will let you take the buses, and the ferry, all over the island. We bought our bus pass at a store in St George, near where the ship docked. There is a big bus depot just a couple blocks from where ships dock in the town of Hamilton. You can take the buses to the beach, they are not very far away and easy to get to from the bus stop. You want to go to Elbow Beach and Long Bay Beach, both open to the public.

The thing not to miss in Bermuda is the beaches. Its not like Caribbean islands with a lot of bars and clubs, maybe a couple on main street in Hamilton and that's it. Its a safe place to go and you don't have to worry at all about riding the buses or ferry anywhere on the island. 3 to 5 days there is plenty enough time to see all that you will want to see and do. Several cruise lines run cruises to Bermuda from east coast cities from Boston to Charleston, SC.
