As both the capital city and commercial heart of Bermuda, island life centers around Hamilton. It is a bustling enclave of pastel Victorian buildings and the island's best variety of shops, restaurants and nightlife. Front Street, ideally set along Hamilton Harbour, is the main street. Go ahead, try to resist lingering at one of the inviting cafés that overlook the sparkling water!.
Bermuda's first capital, this well-preserved city is all about charm. Actually Britain's second settlement in the New World, the history runs deep here with many original streets and colonial-era buildings still intact. The sightseeing is among the island's best.
Once called the "Gibraltar of the West," the Royal Naval Dockyard was built as a shipyard and resupply facility for the British Navy during the 1800s. It was in service as late as 1951 but today, it has been restored and reinvented as a dynamic arts and shopping complex.
A fabulous coastal reserve that stretches for 1.5 miles, South Shore Park protects some of Bermuda's most beautiful pink and white sand beaches. The best way to experience it is by walking the beautiful coastal trail that links half-moon bays and coves divided by lovely rock outcroppings.
