The Ultimate Summer Escape
Turn your summer getaway into a mysterious mix of beauty, fun and flavour. In Bermuda, there is always more than meets the eye. Whether you crave relaxing beach days, thrill-seeking fun or a fusion of culture and entertainment, the island is yours to discover.
The pulse of summer can be found in two main events. In June, Carnival in Bermuda invites you to experience the island's annual soca extravaganza, with indulgent local cuisine, concerts, a parade of bands and fetes on the water. In August, the Cup Match Cricket game is one of the year’s most energy-charged events. Pick your team, sport their colours and enjoy all the festivities that surround the spirited match. If you’re feeling lucky, check out the Crown and Anchor tent to play this famous game of chance alongside the locals.
What To Do
Summer is prime time for being immersed in the outdoors. Dive a shipwreck, find a private cove, climb a lighthouse, or go to a buzzing street party. Discover some of the top things to do in Bermuda’s great outdoors and out on the town.

Island Style: Bermuda Shorts
When in Bermuda, it is only right to wear Bermuda Shorts. Purchase a pair of iconic and colourful Bermuda shorts from TABS (The Authentic Bermuda Shorts). TABS are made from fine cotton twill, and are available in a spectrum of island-inspired colours – from Princess Pink to Parrotfish Turquoise. The shorts come in men’s and women’s cuts, and are lined with fun stripes and tropical prints.
Plan Your Trip
A world apart, closer than you’d think. Getting to Bermuda is easy, and getting around our 21-square miles is a breeze.
Wondering What to Pack?
Bermuda is different from other tropical destinations. Think Britain-meets-the-beach: a mix of modest, classic styles and casual island vibes. The days are warm in June, July and August. Expect blue skies and white fluffy clouds, with occasional showers that are usually brief (and welcome). The sun sets around 8-9 pm. Here are some ideas for what to bring on your summer getaway.
Daywear: swimsuits, summer-weight sports clothes, light windbreaker/rain jacket, hats, flip-flops
Eveningwear: smart-casual summer dresses, light sweaters, light sports jacket, light cotton pants
See the full list of what to pack.
