The "Jewel of the Atlantic," Bermuda is much closer than you think--less than 2 hours away from most eastern US airports. With our incomparable weather, pink sand beaches, breadth of historic sites and warm, friendly people, it's no wonder Condé Nast Traveler readers have voted Bermuda "Best Island in the Caribbean/Atlantic" 17 times since 1994.
Location & Geography
Good things come in small packages, and Bermuda is no exception. Our island feels like it’s been edited down to the best Paradise has to offer. From the pink sand beaches to the gorgeous limestone cliffs, and you’ll be able to tour every inch.
Weather
Bermuda's impeccable location keeps our island warmed by the Gulf Stream and the sun's rays, but free of the tropics' relentless heat. There’s no rainy season to speak of and hurricanes are rare. Our opinion? It is absolutely perfect.
Culture
Culturally, our resort island is a unique blend of colonial history and African heritage. We invite you to come and learn more about this richness that surrounds you in Paradise.
History
Ours is a rich history, beginning when a Spanish sea captain named when Juan Bermúdez spotted our then-uninhabited islands in 1505. The British arrived a century later and the rest is, of course, history.
Town of St. George
Steeped in history, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is the oldest continuously occupied town of English origin in the New World. Picturesque cottages, quaint lanes and alleyways, forts, Bermuda architecture, there is so much to love about this Town.
City of Hamilton
Set along side its beautiful natural harbour, the City of Hamilton has been the capital of Bermuda since 1815. It is a thriving centre of international and local business, adorned with historic buildings, churches, museums, galleries, parks and gardens.
Royal Naval Dockyard
Over 150 years of service as the bastion of Royal Naval might in the Western Atlantic and a participant in the American War of Independence, this historical marvel is an essential destination while in Bermuda. Boatslips, workshops, museums, galleries, shops and much more await all.
Government
Bermuda is officially a British overseas territory, but we enjoy a high degree of self-rule. Learn the basics of our government before you arrive and then come to the island and see it in action for yourself.
Vegetation & Wildlife
The air, the land and the waters of Bermuda are teeming with beauty year-round. Come hear the song of the tree frogs while you take in the fragrance of a Bermudiana blossom bursting with colour. You’ll hardly believe your senses.
Bermuda Awards
The votes are in and the people have spoken! Conde Nast Traveler readers, TripAdvisor members, and Successful Meetings magazine have lauded Bermuda as a top location for vacations and meetings.
