Bermuda On a Budget
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.
