I've been to Bermuda 6 times and absolutely love the place! The most valuable tip I can offer is, avoid the cruise ship crowds if at all possible. Once you get stuck in a horde of tourists, you might as well have gone to Disney World. Bermuda is not like most other island destinations...it is not like the majority of Caribbean islands because it's not in the Caribbean. It's in the Atlantic. There are no casinos. It is not known for its nightclubs. It is known for its tranquility, natural beauty and a touch of Britishness. (I hope that's a word.) Again, as to the cruise ships, IMHO you should fly to Bermuda, not cruise there. Why spend a good portion of your vacation time going to, and coming back from, your vacation?
The "tips" in this video were ok but seem to be directed to people cruising to Bermuda. Per my thoughts above, not a good idea. Second, it would have been better if alternate beaches were identified (if one should avoid Horseshoe Bay, as suggested). Third, no recommendations for food or restaurants? Fourth, the buses and ferries are good, but why not rent a scooter for a day or two? Great way to explore and avoid the "hordes" (see above).
One recommendation: Drive/walk/taxi in the evening (after dark) to Gibbs Hill Lighthouse in Southhampton Parish. Sit at the foot of the lighthouse and watch the stars as the beams of light from the lighthouse shine through them. Miraculous! Because Bermuda is 650 miles away from the US, the light "pollution" is extremely dim allowing you to see massive amounts of stars. Just beautiful.
Beautifully scenic place. Enjoy!
My apologies. Hadn't been to Bermuda in a few years so wasn't aware that the law had been changed to allow casinos. My mistake. I hope this change doesn't alter the essential character of the place.
@Larry Smole: Ideally, I would love to be able to take a ship from the mainland of the U.S. to Bermuda, but not stay on the ship with the cruise hordes. I just hate small airplanes. Do you know if there are any good ships that just go back and forth. And if you do, are the ships that do that able to handle the seas well? I have read so much about seasickness on at least the New York to Bermuda round trip cruises.
sound's great
Thank you
As a local I can say that this is very accurate, perhaps it might be worth adding that you can’t actually rent a proper car, only a twizzy and mopeds 👍
Yes definitely an important call-out. I think I referred to the car rental, but meant the Twizzy.
Also i would add that as a local Bermudas Public trails are another huge attraction as most lead to a calm Beach
I have a question for you Sir : does Bermuda count as British/UK Territory?
Thanking you in advance 🙂.
I spent about 5 weeks there in June of 1970 when I was 6 years old. I have vague but vivid memories. My father had a working holiday there at the hospital in Hamilton. My mother was also an MD but was unable to blend in with the Bermudians. Both were Pathologists.
I remember the lack of water. It had to be conserved and not wasted.
@@antonboludo8886 it is a British Overseas Territory and self-governing. Same as Cayman Islands and British Virgin Islands. I hope this helps.
thank you for the tips... hope to visit bermuda after this pandemic is over
Fingers crossed for you!!
Planning to go to Bermuda at the end of the summer! Thanks for the tips, great video.
Thanks for information! :) hope to see this piece of paradise land one day❤from Ukraine with love😊
Glad it could be helpful. Hope you get there one day!
I went here to visit a friend I met online (she lives in Bermuda) when I was 15. We had an amazing time. I definitely want to go back someday!
Thankfully Steve practiced driving on the left side in Australia and New Zealand, so we should be fine in Bermuda as well! These are super useful tips, thank you! 🙌
I've never had to drive on the opposite side... and would probably get my husband to if we needed to lol.
This video was super informative. I will be going there the end of sept 2021 on a cruise. This will be my first time. The video had lots of great ideas to properly plan out the time we have there. Thanks for the great information.
Those beaches all looked so beautiful! The water looked so calm and clear. Great heads up about prices, had no idea how expensive everyday items were in Bermuda.
Yes definitely on the expensive side (not everything, but a lot of things!). And the beaches were amazing 😊
I love the one comment, a family disembarked and got left behind. That is their fault, for not being aboard when the ship departs port. Thy know what time the ship leaves Bermuda. It has happened and they are responsible then for getting themselves back to their destination. It is a wonderful video that depicts the beauty of our Lind. Thank you!
Great tips, thank you!
I visited Bermuda in 2016, yes they are very expensive. Good video. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching :)
This makes me want to hop on a plane to Bermuda right now!
Same here!
Love these tips! I definitely want to go to Bermuda one day.
Thank you! I hope you can, its a great island.
As a Bermudian I feel very pleased and I agree with this video and tips
Thanks very much!
Never been to Bermuda, great tips! would definitely keep note!
Thanks very much!
Great advice and thanks for including the currency
Love this video well done !!!! Bravo
Thank you!
I really appreciate the work you did on this video.
I plan on attending bermuda this summer and can't wait
Thanks very much! Hope you have a great time there.
great video, the island looks so beautiful the fantasy caves!!! thanks for the tips i have heard bread and stuff is much more expensive ! thanks for sharing!
Happy to share! Yes - certain items are definitely a little pricey.
Good videos! Keep them coming.... I Subscribed!
Visited twice before.
Video brought back fun memories.
Very accurate tips.
Thanks for stopping by :)
We’ve never thought much about Bermuda, but it looks really interesting. Thanks for this informative video!
Glad it was informative :)
nether have i cause lived lived here forever
It’s a nice place
Bermuda is nice. It’s one of those travel destinations that once you’ve done it, you’ve had enough…. unlike many islands in the Caribbean that you would love to return to every year.
I love how short this video is and how much information is in it. Thank you!
Thanks so much!
Bermuda, Beautiful Island
Yes, so nice!
Fantastic job for a tourist. I am a Bermudian living in Florida. Your take o the island spot on!!!
Thanks so much!! I appreciate it and glad I captured it properly 😊
Thanks for the helpful tips. Much appreciated!
Happy to share!

All recommendations are great and it’s nice that you’ve mentioned there’re no franchise on the island 🏝 I felt it’s only deserve to stay for 2 days in such place.
Super well done! All were great tips. We’ll definitely be referring back to this if/when we go to Bermuda!
Thank you! Hope they can be helpful for your own trip :)

I just went to Bermuda a few months ago and I must say I’m glad I did. My crystal cave experience didn’t look anything like this lol. And of course my experience was different as I didn’t take a cruise there. And yes the island is super expensive and something to be prepared for.
Bermuda is one of those places that sound more legendary than real - maybe because we only really ever hear the words is when 'Bermuda triangle' is mentioned. I've never even realised it's a tourist place! I LOVE that they don't allow franchises - yes! Support local people and local businesses. Really great tips, too.
th-cam.com/video/CFAMR1SPFb0/w-d-xo.html
As a local this is very accurate and great tips for tourists well done 👍
What do you guys do for living?
this is the most comprehensive travel video ive ever seen on youtube!
That's so kind, thank you!!
Having a good time watching your vídeo.full support here.
Thanks so much :)
Great video! Very informative 😊💙🌍
Thanks so much!
I was lucky enough to be stationed in Bermuda in 89-93. I loved every minute of my time there. Scootered around or took a pink elephant all around. The people are so kind and courteous. Enjoy!!!!!
I was there 70 / 72 in the Marines at the Annex....loved it....
@MrZocor Yea, know when you mean, was a poor PFC at the time myself, good thing booze was cheap on base.....
Awesome tips Sara. Very informative. The Twizzie looks so cute. I can imagine me and my hubby driving in that vehicle hehe. Would love to visit Bermuda someday. Very nice place. The beaches are our favorite. Those clear blue waters 😍
One good way to save money is to buy food at the grocery store and have a picnic, either on the beach or in your hotel room. Sure the grocery store prices are still pretty expensive compared to elsewhere (unless you live in Manhattan, San Francisco or Honolulu) but it's still a bargain compared to restaurants. The Shell station in Hamilton has quite an array of decent fast food options too and can be a good late-night option or if you're in a hurry and don't want to go for the time and expense of a sit-down meal.
These tips are so helpful! We’d love to visit Bermuda so we definitely saved this! 😆❤️
Thank you! I hope you do visit one day, it was lovely.
I live there

I remember the lack of water. It had to be conserved and not wasted.
I was born in Bermuda and moved to the US when I was only a couple years old. Really hoping to visit soon now that I’m an adult! Thanks for all the tips :)
Have you visited it or not yet?
Thanks!
Thank you for sharing these tips. New subscriber here,

Nice video😊✌️ Congratulations!
Lots of useful information shared by you. Thanks . Will be planning for Bermuda . That tweezy was cute ! N that's good as they are supporting locals for smse s.
Thanks! Yeah it was a neat car option.
Wow! Amazing views beautiful place. Thank you for the tips.
new friend here
Agha Vlogs it is beautiful
Thanks so much :)
Awesome video...those beaches are beautiful 💕
Thank you! I loved the beaches too.
Excellent. Bermuda is awesome
Thank you!
A great starting point, it is always super important to plan your travel budget in advance! Well, fortunately or not 🤷♀️ but there are no cruises in Bermuda in 2021, so I bet those who are lucky to travel there now can enjoy the most popular travel spots without hundreds of tourists around.
Not true ..I'm actually cruising by carnival Nov 2021
Very good and detailed tips! Writing these down as we speak for future travels! From the footage we noticed the islands looks amazing and peaceful! thank you so much for sharing, take care and let connect! we just subbed!
Thanks so much! It was truly a great island.

I spent 3 years in Bermuda back in the early 90s - I loved it!
Yes - it's expensive. As was said, Bermuda is for the 'newly wed, the nearly dead and the filthy rich'. :)
Be sure to to exchange your Bermudian dollars before leaving the island. Since it is not a sovereign nation, there is no exchange offered outside of Bermuda.
The Buses are AWESSOME and used to be Pink.
There's always a Breeze.
You can see the water from just about everywhere.
Bermuda is in the middle of the Atlantic, just about every bit of coast has beach.
Try Barrit's Ginger Beer - it's awesome.
Have a Dark 'n Stormy - Barrit's Ginger Beer and Gosling's rum.
Make sure to go to the Swizzle Inn.
St. George's on the west end of the island is lovely.
Don't leave any food/drink uncovered anywhere - the ants WILL find it.
So good to hear! No franchises!👍😎 good tips
great tips, we've got similar caves here in southern Italy!
I'd love to visit those caves in Italy one day 👌
Helpful vid thank you 👏
Glad it helped
Excellent tips! We have not visited before but Bermuda is on our list. You mentioned a few things I was not aware of until your videos - like that crazy car! We will have to come back and watch when we are planning.
Thanks very much! I hope you can visit one day, it's a fun island.
th-cam.com/video/CFAMR1SPFb0/w-d-xo.html
Nice video! Seems like so long ago now seeing Bermuda with cruise ships and tourists.
I"m sure a lot of places look much different these days without all the tourism.
Clear Water is another beautiful, more private beach
Thank you
Nice beach👍😀. Thanks for sharing
Thanks!
You are welcome my friend..👍👍😍. Stay in touch.
Great travel tips for Bermuda. I couldn't imagine climbing into a "twizzy" - Lol. We've never been to Bermuda. Makes me miss cruising the Caribbean. Thanks for sharing and enjoy your weekend 😀👍
Thank you! I miss cruising in general these days. And yes - that twizzy was interesting!
The empty beach was amazing
Yes it was!
Yay!! This is so helpful. Your video is so informative. I love it because I learned something from you. Thanks a lot for sharing.😍💕 And yes! Definitely joining your family.,✨
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it, and glad you found it helpful.
@@TheAverageTourist yes! I did.😍❤️💕 I'm excited to learn more from you with your awesome travels.😍😍😍
I’m from Bermuda and this was a very accurate review 💕
I think she is very beautiful. I hope we can be friends. I want to collect some information to move to her soon
Are you happy in your life?
Excellent video
These are some great tips and recommendations. We've been to Bermuda some 4 years ago and we loved it. We found it to be really its own thing. I wasn't aware of the ban on franchises though, that's interesting. You made a great video! New friends and fellow travelers over here :-)
Thank you very much! I had no idea about the franchises until we arrived and thought it was interesting.
I like banning franchises on islands who wants a Burger King when on a exotic place. We’re going this month for the first time. Thanks and follow us along. ❤️🏝
Amazing video ❤️
If you're one a cruise and staying for 3 days... take the Ferry to St George first. Walk down to Tobacco Bay beach and it will leave you breath taking away on your first day! I will never ever forget seeing Tobacco Bay beach for the first time walking over the incline and looking down into the inlet!
Good idea! We didn't really have a "plan" so we just ended up winging it while we were there. Now we know what to do for next time! lol
@@TheAverageTourist If you cruise to Bermuda, there usuually is a meet and greet of Cruise Critics members
Very helpful= we're going in July
this was very well put together, informational but not boring. i never watch these videos to the end but i did for you. i usually watch a little then let the rest play to the end. Buuuuuuuut, now I am definitely pushing Burmuda up higher on my list.
Thanks so much!
th-cam.com/video/CFAMR1SPFb0/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for not spoiling the names of the other beaches so they may remain private 🏖️
There are so many beaches that except for Horseshoe Bay not croweded at all. Tobacco Bay in St. George is very nice but can get crowded. Jphn Smith is also nice
Good recipe
My bucket list Bermuda. That's the place I really wanna go. Thanks for the information. This video is amazing thanks for sharing. A new friend here watching from Texas stay connected 👍👇🔔
Thanks so much! Hope you can get to Bermuda one day 😊
Just me own the day A very short flight as well!
th-cam.com/video/CFAMR1SPFb0/w-d-xo.html
It should have got millions of view ...great knowledge.
All the best .
Lots of love from 🇮🇳💛🙏
Thanks so much!
Thanks for the tip about remaining seated.
Happy to share
Oh wow, a Twizzie! So fun! I bet that keeping franchises off the island makes the atmosphere much more local. Love that. Really nice vid :) We just subscribed, would love to be YT friends!
Thanks, just subbed back. It was a great island.
Twizzy are a lot of fun to drive
I've also heard it's better to fly to bermuda because of the aerial view, beautiful pink sand beaches, coral reefs etc.
It would be a beautiful view for sure!
Def more time
Bermuda is more expensive to fly if you live on the east coast of the United States. Going on a cruise is great; just know everything is closed in Bermuda on a Sunday.
its gotta be better when u enter Bermuda Triangle
Labor Day is celebrated when it is in the US. Some shops and restaurants were closed then too.
Great vlog!!!!
Vlogs by Zara Bermuda is beautiful
Thank you :)
How refreshing that all those crappy franchisees are not permitted! amazing.
Man I miss my island thanks for doing it justice lol. Currently in Texas!
It's a beautiful island! How is Texas? I've never been.
Very informative content. Bermuda has been on my radar for a while. Thanks for this great information, my new friend. The big red button has been activated. :-)
Thanks so much! Bermuda is a great place :)
Great info! I’ve had Bermuda on my list. This was a great overview and really helpful information. Thanks for sharing.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
I want to settle here but I don't have money but ready to work any tips ll be grateful ☺️
Great British territory. Marvelous
excellent -- thank you
You are welcome!
Congrats on Duffy winning Gold for Bermuda!!
Never heard of a Twizy before! It looks kinda cool but not sure our legs would fit into those tiny cars 😅Also, those caves looks amazing!! the water is so clear and a little eerie that you can see all the way down - thank you for the tips!!
Yeah those cars looked so tiny! Happy to share :)
Hola, que tal?, como van?, Los mejores y más cordiales Saludos desde puente piedra, lima, Perú, ojalá que puedas venir en algún momento a mi país y que disfrutes mucho de todo por aquí, con la familia y los amigos, felicidades por tus vídeos...
I really like that they don't support franchises. I actually think that is a good idea. Tourists should support the local small businesses whenever possible. As tourists, we do not often consider how much traffic and chaos we cause the locals. Supporting their businesses make it a win-win for everyone. Great tips.
Bermuda, for my wife and I is among the last (call it) North Western Quadrant itineraries we can do. So, we booked to go there with Royal Caribbean in 2023. Very much looking forward to it, but as with all things, we must do our research. This video gives us a good start.
Hiii i see you stay on Bermuda Island 😊 I am the traveling Island Hairdresser, do you guys need a Hairdresser on your island? Please let me know, i am from Capetown South Africa, atm i work on Saint Helena Island, i am doing all the islands so i thought i would pop you a message to get some contacts on Bermuda Island 🏝
Great tips! Helpful video! I hit the red button to join your channel! :)
Thanks so much!!
Warwick long bay was beautiful. Then there are about four beaches to explore on either side of Warwick long bay Just stay on the beach snd keep walking. Lots of beautiful beaches in that area
So many incredible beaches. I can't wait to go back and see more.
This was SO great! Bermuda was actually the first time I (Krystal) left the US and it would have been so helpful to know these back then. Would love to go back since it's been a few years. Would love to rent one of those little cars LOL
This was a better video than Bermuda’s own TH-cam channel
Thanks so much!! 😊
I am headed to Bermuda in 2 days! Thank you for the video it is so helpful!
I hope you had a great time there!
great tips Sara! that little car got me curious to ride :) how about the weather there?
The weather follows the seasons of Canada and the US - so when we go into our winter months, so does Bermuda. It gets cooler from November to April (though not cold like in Canada!)
Very helpful video! Did you do the Train Rail Hike?
No we didn't do any hiking this time. Maybe next time!
You might add Tips on the best places to eat! Just about every place you eat will be experience. When me & my wife visited Bermuda 3 years ago, we ate at Bone Fish & we both had their specialty - the Fish sandwich which was Wow! Wow! Wow! The
I might have to go back just to relive the food experiences so I can add more tips :)
The Average Tourist I should have said add ‘suggestions’ on best places to eat. Also, about every place will be expensive (instead of experience).
The Average Tourist Me & my wife are heading back to Bermuda next week for a week due the great airfare & hotel rates. Bermuda is evidently hurting for tourists due to the CV19 & no cruise tourists. Hope to find some more good places to eat!!!
@@brucedeerhaven Hope you have a great time. We tried the Swizzle Inn and that was pretty good - had to get the rum swizzle.
The Average Tourist I heard about th rum swizzle & will try it! There is also a pineapple drink mixed with several liquors that is supposed to be good. One restaurant in particular is really really good (Bone Fish) & we plan to eat there often!!
hi i new friend from thailand 🙏 👍😊💖💕 nice to meet you
