Itineraries for Your Trip to Bermuda
3 Days in Bermuda for First Timers
Before I went to visit some friends in Bermuda that I’d made while traveling in South America, I thought all there was to this North Atlantic island was the pink-sand beaches of the postcards. Although the South Shore beaches are certainly beautiful enough to keep you happy for days, there are many more must-see Bermuda attractions to occupy you.
If you’ve got three days in Bermuda, this itinerary showcases the island’s whole spectrum, which covers everything from a UNESCO World Heritage Site and multi-million-dollar mansions to kaleidoscopic marine life and party boats. So grab your shorts and buckle up for 72 hours in Bermy.
If you only have time for one thing, make it snorkeling at a shipwreck.
Bermuda’s subtropical climate means it experiences much milder temperatures than its Caribbean neighbors.
Continue the aquatic theme this afternoon with a helmet diving experience that lets you stroll along the ocean floor without spending days getting a scuba diving qualification. Spot plentiful marine life as you cruise on a glass-bottom boat and wander around a colorful coral reef.
Thanks to its stunning setting, it's no surprise that Bermuda is a prime choice of destination for the rich and famous. This morning, admire the lavish mansions that line Millionaire’s Row on a cruise that takes you to places that cars can't.
Bermuda is one of the few places in the world where you don't need to sail for hours or be a certified scuba diver to experience a shipwreck. So, spend the afternoon snorkeling amid the skeleton of a sunken ship that provides a habitat thriving with marine life. You'll have a high chance of spotting parrotfish, sea turtles, and spotted eagle rays.
Today, it's finally time to check out Bermuda’s world-famous coastline. Spend today visiting sublime stretches of sand, such as Warwick Long Bay—a quieter alternative to Horseshoe Bay, and soak up the serenity of Elbow Beach, one of the longest on the island.
Cap an attraction-packed 72 hours in Bermuda by exploring a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the town of St. George, on a private walking tour. Visit fascinating fortresses and the ruins of an unfinished church while asking as many questions as you like about this history-rich Bermuda parish.
