Traveling in Bermuda
St. George, Bermuda
Located in the Atlantic Ocean, off the coast of North Carolina and north of the Caribbean, Bermuda is a self-governing British overseas territory. It is divided into nine parishes. St. George's Parish is where you will find the historic Town of St. George and the Island of St. David's. The Crystal Caves and the Bermuda Aquarium are located in Hamilton Parish and Smith's Parish has Flatts Village, Spittle Pond Nature Preserve, and Devil's Hole Aquarium. Paget Parish has many resorts as well as Elbow Beach, and Bermuda Botanical Gardens. If you're interested in golf head to Warwick Parish and the best beaches are found in Southampton Parish. Other parishes include Devonshire, Pembroke, and Sandys Parishes.
The City of Hamilton, located in Pembroke Parish, is the capital, while St. George is the historical capital and the oldest surviving English New World town.
Bermuda is made up of about 138 islands and islets along an east-west axis. The major islands are connected by bridges. You'll find most of the best beaches in the southern part of the territory and most of the islands are made up of low hills and complex waterways.
Bermuda has a subtropical climate with hot and humid springs, summers, and falls, but cool winters. Water temperatures are also quite cool during the winter months. Similar to the southeastern coast of the United States, the Gulf Stream does keep water temperatures warmer than you might expect.
At A Glance
- There is an excellent bus service which travels throughout Bermuda. This bus service connects most parts of the islands to the city of Hamilton. Buses are comfortable with air conditioning, and are popular with locals and tourists alike. Bus stops are marked by pink and blue painted poles. Pink is used for buses heading into Hamilton and blue for those heading away. Alternatively, there are passenger ferries which travel around Hamilton Harbour and the Great Sound.
- Motorized bicycles and mopeds are a popular and fun way to explore Bermuda. It's easy to find a place to rent a moped and the prices are fair. Travel is on the left side of the road which can be a little tricky for U.S. visitors.
- A fun way to experience Bermuda is by walking along the former Bermuda Railway. It was dismantled in 1948 but many sections still exist in the form of a walking trail that connects St. George Town in the east through Pembroke Parish near the City of Hamilton and on toward Somerset Village in the west. There are incredible views along the path and it is an experience worth having.
- If you're interested in shopping, it's best to head to Front Street in Hamilton. It's easy to walk around this area, but several of the larger department stores have recently closed. Other shopping areas are found in St. George as well as Dockyard, which has a small shopping mall.
- During a Thursday and Friday in August the entire territory shuts down for cricket. This tradition dates back to the early 1900s. Businesses close (including tourist attractions) and many locals set up tents to enjoy the activities. The event lasts through the weekend and it's a great experience if you happen to be in town for the festivities.
- Many people visit Bermuda as part of a cruise. This is particularly common during the summer months, with cruises departing from Baltimore, Boston, Bayonne, New York, Charleston, Norfolk, Miami, and Philadelphia. Popular stops for cruise ships include Hamilton, Saint George, and the Royal Naval Dockyard.

Top Tourist Attractions
Town of St. George: This town is the former capital of Bermuda. It is considered the oldest, continually inhabited English settlement in the new world and has been declared a scenic UNESCO World Heritage Site. It dates back to 1612 and has quaint, winding streets that are lined with British Colonial architecture. There are many fountains, gardens, and squares, making it a wonderful place to explore.
Bermuda Maritime Museum: This museum warrants a half a day visit to explore the Royal Naval Dockyard. There are old, limestone storage buildings that have been redeveloped into a tourist attraction and shopping area by the Bermuda Government.
Bermuda Aquarium, Museum, and Zoo: This aquarium offers visitors a 140,000 gallon replica coral reef and is one of the area's most popular attractions. There are more than 300 birds, reptiles and mammals as well as 200 species of fish.
Realistic Expectations for Your Travel Budget
Having realistic expectations when it comes to your budget is crucial. A lot of people claim to be "budget" travelers. Many plan their trip thinking they can manage on just $152 a day like a shoestring backpacker. But the truth is, most aren't comfortable with roughing it on a trip. Reflect on what you truly enjoy and how you've traveled in the past. Are you a fan of resorts and comfortable hotels, or do you prefer the price range offered by hostels but with limited amenities? How important is dining in nice restaurants to you? And how do you like to get around? Your answers will greatly influence your overall travel budget.
What Does It Mean to Be a Budget Traveler?
Many travelers hear that exploring Bermuda can be done for $152 a day, but if you want to keep some comforts, expect to pay a lot more.
Backpackers might find a way to travel around on that tight budget, but that usually means dorm stays in hostels, eating at budget-friendly restaurants or fast food places, using public transport or walking, and focusing on free attractions.
Is Your Travel Style Average?
For couples or families traveling for fun, it's common to stay in mid-range hotels, dine at well-known restaurants, and visit the big museums and attractions that charge entry fees. You won't want to miss all of the major sights and attractions. As most activities are not free, you'll be spending at least some money on your trip. Given this, a more realistic daily budget would be around $350 per person, per day.
Seeking a Stylish Getaway from the Daily Routine?
If you're seeking a deluxe vacation that includes premium service and amenities, expect to pay around $689. This budget will cover luxurious hotels, award-winning dining, extravagant tours, and private transportation, landing you in the "luxury" travel range. You might even find yourself vacationing in high-end spots like the major cities and resort areas.
We've been gathering travel costs from tens of thousands of actual travelers since 2010, and we use the data to calculate average daily travel costs for destinations around the world. We also systematically analyze the prices of hotels, hostels, and tours from travel providers such as Kayak, HostelWorld, TourRadar, Viator, and others. This combination of expenses from actual travelers, combined with pricing data from major travel companies, gives us a uniqe insight into the overall cost of travel for thousands of cities in countries around the world.
