Our Featured Destination…Bermuda!

The first thing that you notice about Bermuda is its charm. Pastel painted houses with white roofs. Businessmen dressed in proper Bermuda shorts, complete with jacket and tie. Natives and visitors alike enjoying high tea. Smiling children, dressed in their school uniforms, waiting for the pink bus to carry them off to school.

Just 21 square miles in size, Bermuda has very diverse offerings for the visitor. Lighthouses, Historic Forts, charming Churches and even the smallest Drawbridge in the world. There is a beautiful, 36 acre Botanical Garden, Limestone Caves, the 40,000 square foot Bermuda Underwater Exploration Institute, and 21 miles of track-free railway trails for your walking pleasure. Wreck diving, snorkeling, fishing and boating are popular water sports. Eight golf courses and over 100 tennis courts. Shopping, culinary delights and world-class spas. Festivals, events, ceremonies and tours take place year round.

If you love pink sand beaches and crystal clear water in multi-shades of blue, Bermuda is the place for you! Choose from long stretches of beach, cozy coves or rocky rough shorelines to enjoy.

What about the weather? Swimming season starts by late April and normally goes through at least mid-November. Summer temperatures are often in the 80’s. “Winter” temperatures are often in the 60’s, making it a great season for golf, tennis, walking and exploring. Hurricane season officially runs from June 1-November 30, the greatest frequency of storms being between mid August and mid October.

Just over two hours by plane from Newark, Bermuda is truly unique. Whether you chose to visit by cruise ship for a whirlwind sampling, or stay at one of the many different types of accommodations on the island to enjoy a leisurely exploration, I highly recommend visiting Bermuda at least once.
