Overview

Bermuda holiday guide for UK travellers

Bermuda holidays from the UK are a long-haul trip with a direct flight: British Airways flies from London Heathrow in approx. 8 hours. Bermuda is a small island in the North Atlantic, not in the Caribbean, and a British Overseas Territory. Swimming weather runs from around May to October.

The island is about 34 kilometres long and linked by bridges. The south shore has the pink-sand beaches, among them Horseshoe Bay, Elbow Beach and Warwick Long Bay. Hamilton, the capital, sits on a harbour in the middle of the island, with ferries to the Royal Naval Dockyard at the west end. St George’s, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is at the east end, close to the airport.

Visitors cannot rent a normal car. You get around by bus, ferry, taxi or a small electric vehicle. Bermuda is expensive, and prices for meals, drinks and taxis are higher than in the UK. The Bermudian dollar is tied to the US dollar, and US dollars are widely accepted.
