Bermuda Holidays

In a certain sense, Bermuda Holidays are the ultimate way to ‘escape from it all’. Bermuda is an island over 1,000 kilometres from any other landmass: if you prefer your clear blue skies and empty horizons to be truly limitless, there is no finer place to be. Paradoxically, the relatively small landmass means that Bermuda has few open green spaces outside of its nine golf courses. Not that the rich and famous who call Bermuda home have any privacy concerns. The hotels of the island ape the high-class homes of the local population, with resorts to pamper you, promoting an exclusive holiday feel.

The climate also emphasises the pleasant and relaxing. The story of a Bermuda Holiday unfolds well outside of the tropical sun of the Caribbean. Thankfully, the gulf stream ensures a humid subtropical climate with mild winters and warm (but not uncomfortable) summers. This also means beaches and waters that are as good as anything the Caribbean can offer. These pink sands are perfect for sunbathing or a comfortable stroll. The island’s isolated location and favourable climate have lead to a unique selection of flora and fauna. Several species of tree, shrub and other flora are unique to the island and migratory birds arrive in their thousands to take their own holidays in Bermuda.

Luxury Holidays to Bermuda

Holidays to Bermuda aren’t all about the island’s plentiful natural beauty though. Shopping thrives in Hamilton (the Bermudan capital) and the island’s towns are packed with restaurants offering a wide range of Bermudan and British themed dishes. Walkers and explorers will also be well served by the island’s colonial history. Saint George’s (the Northernmost island) is a UNESCO World Heritage Site filled with brightly painted houses, narrow streets and old buildings dating back through four hundred years of history. The island also plays host to several forts in and around this old port town.
