Must-see attractions
Fort St Catherine
Bermuda
　　The most impressive of Bermuda's 91 forts was originally built on this rocky promontory in 1614 and expanded five times since. A drawbridge leads inside into an air-conditioned museum, featuring dioramas of the fort through the centuries and replica Crown Jewels. Head down into the subterranean tunnels to see the...
Jobson's Cove
Bermuda
　　A minute's walk through the dunes from the west end of Warwick Long Bay, this gorgeous cove is framed by a horseshoe of jagged cliffs. The swimming hole is one of Bermuda's loveliest. It tends to be busier in the afternoons, so get here early. ...
Elbow Beach
Bermuda
　　Imagine a vast expanse of pristine white sand, cerulean waters and swaying palm trees. Elbow Beach is it, and it's one of Bermuda's loveliest, with nary a clump of seaweed in sight. The beach is flanked by exclusive resorts, but most of it is public territory. Sometimes the waves get...
La Trattoria
Bermuda
　　Its exposed-brick-and-terracotta interior creating a typical trattoria ambience in a pedestrian passageway, one of Hamilton's best-loved Italian restaurants is equally popular with visiting families (kids' menu, crayons to play with) and locals in the know. The hearty homemade pasts, veal in marsala sauce and other Capri-inspired dishes are most satisfying....
Crystal Cave & Fantasy Cave
Bermuda
　　Small but beautifully formed, these two caves are one of the island's biggest attractions, and justifiably so. Entertaining 45-minute tours lead you down steep steps; you get the benefit of a state-of-the-art lighting system that subtly illuminates the delicate straw stalactites and frozen stone waterfalls. Crystal Cave is the more...
Bermuda Underwater Exploration Institute (BUEI)
Bermuda
　　The hands-on exhibits at this educational and entertaining place initiate visitors into the mysteries of the deep. The tacky-but-fun diving capsule simulator takes you down to 12,000ft depths and there's a fascinating display of diving apparatus through the ages (including a 17th-century diving bell), not to mention treasure from Bermuda's...
Warwick Long Bay
Bermuda
　　This long pink-sand beach, backed by sand dunes, stretches for half a mile, and is connected to several other coves and beaches via footpaths through the surrounding South Shore Park. Though it's quite narrow, the beach is popular with families due to its shallow, calm waters. ...
Fort Scaur
Bermuda
　　With expansive views of Dockyard and the Great Sound from its lofty hilltop location, Fort Scaur was built in the 1860s and used throughout the 1920s. You can explore the intact ramparts, cannons and gun placements; a steep trail through the dense vegetation connects the fort to the Railway Trail...
Royal Naval Dockyard
Bermuda
　　When the British were no longer able to use ports in their former American colonies, they chose this site as their 'Gibraltar of the West'. In addition to the superb Bermuda Maritime Museum, Bermuda's largest fortifications comprise a prison, a Victorian victualling yard, barracks-turned-mall, several restaurants, craft markets, manmade beach...
Fort Hamilton
Bermuda
　　On a hilltop just next to the City of Hamilton, this fort is Bermuda's most central and is very well-preserved. It was intended to protect the Dockyard from enemy ships rounding Spanish Point, and the views over Hamilton, Pembroke and Paget are fantastic. You can wander the battlements and descend...
National Museum of Bermuda
Bermuda
　　If you only see one museum in Bermuda, make it this. Taking up the entirety of the Dockyard's 19th-century fortifications, it's divided into two main parts. The vaulted Queen's Exhibition Hall is an atmospheric gallery that showcases the treasures found on 18 key shipwrecks. On the upper grounds, the world's...
Cooper's Island Nature Reserve
Bermuda
　　Bermudians were granted access to this 77-acre nature reserve made up of woodland, unspoiled beaches, salt marsh and rocky shores when the US Navy pulled out in 1995. Nature trails run through a mixed woodland of remaining Bermuda cedars and olivewoods, mixed with introduced growths of Brazilian pepper and allspice....
