Bermuda

Historic St. George, Hamilton shopping, pink-sand beaches, top-notch dining, superb sailing & fishing...this still largely genteel island apart out in the Atlantic (not the Caribbean!) is a marvelous little world apart.

The top 8 musts in gracious, beautiful Bermuda

Craig Stanfill A British Overseas Territory with a land area of just 21 square miles – the size of a middling city anywhere in the world – and a population of 73,000, Bermuda is named after its original discoverer, Spanish explorer Juan de Bermúdez. It has been settled for 412 years and has been a popular tourist destination – especially for those in the United States, for whom it´s a flight of just over two hours from the East Coast – since the 1880´s, when the Hamilton Hotel (now the…

Bermuda Tourism Authority launches agreement with Airbnb

This year Airbnb entered into a partnership with the Bermuda Tourism Authority that involves marketing and the exchange of fees. Remarkable, because Bermuda is nothing if not an upmarket destination. What's more, Airbnb has now signed memorandums of understanding with a dozen or so Caribbean islands, creating a new era of cooperation between the governments and this company, which not so long ago was frequently accused of tax evasion. read post

This shows how Bermuda can make for a perfectly lovely vacation even without its vaunted beaches, in the off season, for example https://www.travelandleisure.com/why-visit-bermuda-off-season-thing...

If you're familiar with traditional Chinese garden "moon gates," you may be interested to learn that these have also been incorporated into Bermuda architecture since the 1860s, when a local sea captain was inspired by his travels in China to build one here. Now Bermudian moon gates number around 40, and it's considered good luck for couples to step through them when they get married.

I love Bermuda - its beaches, its history and quaint architecture, its kind people. Well, some not so kind, because the government is now in the process of repealing the legalization of marriage equality instituted by the island's supreme court. It's been passed by the legislature and now awaits ratification by the UK territory's governor, who is legally a representative of the Queen of England. There's some question as to whether this final approval will be forthcoming, but if so, Bermuda will be seen as foolish and backward as the world's first territory to actually go backwards on this issue - and in a month where Australia and even conservative Austria have just finally legalized it.

Many opponents of repeal - including the Bermuda Tourism Authority - believe this would be a huge problem for the island's tourism industry and image. And if it does become law, I for one will do my small part to make it an even bigger problem among the travel media and industry. This kind of primitive, meanspirited discrimination in a society where historically discrimination has been so traumatic on the racial front is unworthy of Bermuda.
