Bermuda Holidays

It is fair to say that Bermuda Holidays offer a great way to get away from all of the stresses and strains of modern life; surrounded by miles of endless blue sea, its secluded location makes for a restful and beautiful destination. Bermuda’s modest size makes getting around the island convenient, not that you’ll necessarily want to leave the comfort of your resort on a holiday here; the island’s hotels are renowned for their elegant and tasteful style as much as for their particularly select brand of luxury.

The weather here is well suited to ensuring a laid-back holiday, with a more moderate climate than the tropical extremes found in the Caribbean. Warm but not excessive so, sunny and with great, wide open, blue skies, the climate provides wonderful conditions for lounging on the beautiful, soft sandy beaches or taking a dip in the glittering sea. The impressive shores of this popular yet exclusive destination are warmed by balmy ocean currents, ensuring that taking a swim here is always a comfortable and enjoyable pursuit. The great weather also makes for a rich offering of lush vegetation and abundant natural delights, many unique to this island. 

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.

Things to do whilst on holiday

The climate also emphasises the pleasant and relaxing atmosphere that you'll experience on a trip to this enchanted island. However 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.
