Bermuda Cruise Vacation - Where the Old World Meets the New World

by Giles Alton

Take a Bermuda cruise vacation and you will experience paradise at its finest. Bermuda is home to world-famous pink sand beaches and sparkling blue waters. You can experience snorkeling and scuba diving, swimming with dolphins, glass bottom boat rides, fishing, and more.

If you like to golf, there are plenty of golf courses to choose from, all with gorgeous views. If you would rather enjoy the day at historic sites, Bermuda has the port of St. George’s to offer. A 17th century port, cobblestone streets still pave the way and the town is also designated as a World Heritage Site. The capital city of Hamilton is in the center of the island and is the home for great shopping and restaurants.

Bermuda cruises will take you this warm island paradise. Its location in the Atlantic Ocean creates the mild temperatures in the spring through the fall. Pack all of your essential beach gear to enjoy the beautiful weather.

In order to get to Bermuda from the USA, there are several departure ports you can choose from. They are: Philadelphia, New York, Cape Liberty (NJ), Norfolk (VA), Baltimore, Charleston, Fort Lauderdale, and Boston. There are many options for five or seven day cruises from these ports.

You can choose from Norwegian Cruises, Royal Caribbean, Princess, Carnival, and Celebrity. Several cruise ships will visit Bermuda over twenty times in one season so you can be sure that there will be plenty of options for you when planning your cruise to Bermuda.

There are three ports to choose from in Bermuda, but only two are accessible by the largest cruise ships that now frequent the island. Kings Wharf and St. George are the two largest ports.

Kings Wharf is located on the west end of Bermuda. At this port you will find activities such as the Royal Naval Dockyard and the Bermuda Maritime Museum. On the east end of Bermuda is St. George’s, which is smaller and quainter.

There is no need to worry about missing out on either port - Bermuda is only 21 miles long so it is easy to travel between them to check out all the sites. In Bermuda there are no rental cars to so you can take public buses, ferries or even rent scooters to get around the island.

Consider taking a Bermuda cruise - it is one beautiful destination that is sure not to disappoint!
