A tiny island, a global impact.
From its discovery in the early 1500s to its flourishing as a vital maritime colony, Bermuda's story is utterly captivating. It's a history as rich and compelling as our stunning landscapes and the warm, vibrant people who call this island home. Our story is one of resilience, cultural blending, and an adventurous spirit that shapes the vibrant community you’re invited to experience. You may associate Bermuda with the triangle, but once you visit, you’ll see there are plenty more than three sides to our story.
Bermuda, Then & Now
From playing a part in US independence during the Gunpowder Plot, to today’s role as one of the most important business and reinsurance centres in the world. Bermuda has always impacted global events far beyond our borders.
Food Culture
Start the day with Johnny Bread served alongside a traditional codfish breakfast. Fish sandwich served on raisin bread? Just trust us. Sip piping-hot fish chowder infused with black rum and sherry peppers. Our Island cuisine is globally influenced with a flavour that’s distinctly Bermudian – you have to taste it to get it.
Festivals & Holidays
Bermudians love a party, and our calendar is packed full of festivals, celebrations, and events – and you’re invited. You’ll feel the upbeat, fun vibe in the air as soon as you arrive, no matter when you visit. But when the holidays roll around or it’s festival time, the party is next level. Get ready to have the time of your life.
