1. HOP ON A BOAT

Bermuda is an archipelago of more than 180 islets and cays. Cruising through Bermuda’s waters on a private charter boat is one of the best ways to explore many of the islands that are not accessible by foot. With a variety of boats to choose from you can decide where you want to depart and what activities you want to include!

2.UNDER THE SEA

Hartley’s Undersea Walk leads underwater walks that take you eye to eye with tropical fish, sea turtles, and more. By using a helmet with large glass windows and air hoses, divers can walk and breathe freely as they explore the colourful coral reefs.

3. VISIT THE LITTLE CHAPEL

Heydon Trust sits of 44-acres of of lush gardens and is one of the largest parks in Bermuda. The Heydon Chapel dates back to 1620 and is the smallest church in Bermuda. This picturesque building can be found in the park along with other Trust properties, a bird sanctuary, fruit groves and flower gardens. 

4.GOLF LIKE THE LOCALS

Bermuda residents love to be active and be outside, which might be why we boast the most golf courses per capita. With many courses to choose from, you can decide if you want to play a PGA Grand Slam course or if a par 3-course is more your style. Either way, if you want to play like a local, make sure you pack a cheeky cocktail in your golf cart cooler!

5. FIND THE WHALES

During the spring months, the annual migration of humpback whales passes through Bermuda’s waters. While breaching whales can sometimes be seen from the land, these majestic mammals are best seen by boat. Book a half-day tour through the Island Tour Centre or the Bermuda Aquarium Museum and Zoo.

7. CATCH A BREEZE

Thanks to strong coastal breezes, Bermuda is a perfect place to learn kiteboarding—a high-adrenaline water sport that gets you flying over, and on top of the island’s turquoise waters. For lessons and equipment rentals, contact the professionals at Island Winds.

8. BOOK A COURT

Tennis has a rich history in Bermuda, and the sport was even introduced to the U.S. by Bermudian Mary Outerbridge in 1874. Reserve a court for a knock around at Pomander Gate Tennis Club, a private club open to guests on the outskirts of Hamilton.

Creating a Bermuda kite is an old-school craft of building a frame from wooden sticks and string to paste colourful tissue paper on. Each kite is unique and beautiful. On Good Friday you will find families lining the beaches and parks sending their homemade kites into the sky. If you want to try making your own, you can attend a kite-making workshop. 

11. CATCH YOUR OWN DINNER

12. DISCOVER A HISTORICAL LANDMARK

Meander its peaceful 22-acre garden where you’ll also find iron cannons and a large defensive moat and a photographic vista of Hamilton Harbour. There is also access to the Railway Trail where you can venture further into your own
