The pink sand and crystal blue water of Bermuda may keep you at the beach for your entire vacation, and no one could blame you if that’s your choice. Head to Elbow Beach for the pinkest sand and Horseshoe Bay Beach for the mandatory photo op at the island’s most photographed destination. Tobacco Bay is where to head if you want to enjoy an adult libation while lounging on the sand, and Warwick Long Bay Beach features gentle winds and waves with horseback riding available.
Bermuda’s natural wonders don’t stop at the shoreline, however. Head underground to take a guided tour of the Crystal and Fantasy Caves, where a couple of boys in 1907 discovered amazing crystal formations surround an underground lake.
Bermuda’s golf courses let you enjoy striking beauty while playing; if you spring for the greens fees at the Port Royal Golf Club, you may cross paths with visiting celebrities as well. Check out Turtle Hill and Tucker’s Point clubs as well. Cricket is also a major sport in Bermuda, so catch a local game if you visit during the season.
A visit to the Bermuda Maritime Museum lets you understand this island’s past, including its involvement with the slave trade, and a visit to the historic town of St. George takes you back to the 18th century, with historic simulations during high season. Don’t forget to take some time to pamper yourself at Bermuda’s fine restaurants and spas, and head to the Royal Naval Dockyard to visit local art galleries, craft shops and pubs.
